UPSTREAM: efi: stub: use high allocation for converted command line
Before we can move the command line processing before the allocation of the kernel, which is required for detecting the 'nokaslr' option which controls that allocation, move the converted command line higher up in memory, to prevent it from interfering with the kernel itself. Since x86 needs the address to fit in 32 bits, use UINT_MAX as the upper bound there. Otherwise, use ULONG_MAX (i.e., no limit) Reviewed-by: Matt Fleming <matt@codeblueprint.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Bug: 30369029 Patchset: kaslr-arm64-4.4 (cherry picked from commit 48fcb2d0216103d15306caa4814e2381104df6d8) Signed-off-by: Jeff Vander Stoep <jeffv@google.com> Change-Id: Ie959355658d3f2f1819bee842c77cc5eef54b8e7
