#1396151 — [PATCH 0/3] x86/KASLR: Build identity mappings on demand

I'm going back to small steps. :)

This series lets the x86_64 compressed boot environment build
page table identity mappings on demand. This will be used once
we begin randomizing the physical memory position beyond the
existing identity maps.

This series was much better, thanks! I've applied them to tip:x86/boot and will 
push them out if they pass testing.

I also applied Boris's type casting cleanups and your comments improval patch:

  ed09acde44e3 x86/KASLR: Improve comments around the mem_avoid[] logic

Thanks,
