To prevent improper use of the PTEs that are used for text patching, the
next patches will use a temporary mm struct. Initailize it by copying
the init mm.
The address that will be used for patching is taken from the lower area
that is usually used for the task memory. Doing so prevents the need to
frequently synchronize the temporary-mm (e.g., when BPF programs are
installed), since different PGDs are used for the task memory.
Finally, randomize the address of the PTEs to harden against exploits
that use these PTEs.

The first kmemleak_scan() call after boot would trigger the crash below
because this callpath:
kernel_init
free_initmem
mem_encrypt_free_decrypted_mem
free_init_pages
unmaps memory inside the .bss when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y.
kmemleak_init() will register the .data/.bss sections and then
kmemleak_scan() will scan those addresses and dereference them looking
for pointer references. If free_init_pages() frees and unmaps pages in
those sections, kmemleak_scan() will crash if referencing one of those
addresses:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffbd402000

Since kmemleak_free_part() is tolerant to unknown objects (not tracked
by kmemleak), it is fine to call it from free_init_pages() even if not
all address ranges passed to this function are known to kmemleak.

Swap storage is restricted to max_swapfile_size (~16TB on x86_64) whenever
the system is deemed affected by L1TF vulnerability. Even though the limit
is quite high for most deployments it seems to be too restrictive for
deployments which are willing to live with the mitigation disabled.
We have a customer to deploy 8x 6,4TB PCIe/NVMe SSD swap devices which is
clearly out of the limit.
Drop the swap restriction when l1tf=off is specified. It also doesn't make
much sense to warn about too much memory for the l1tf mitigation when it is
forcefully disabled by the administrator.

kvmclock defines few static variables which are shared with the
hypervisor during the kvmclock initialization.
When SEV is active, memory is encrypted with a guest-specific key, and
if the guest OS wants to share the memory region with the hypervisor
then it must clear the C-bit before sharing it.
Currently, we use kernel_physical_mapping_init() to split large pages
before clearing the C-bit on shared pages. But it fails when called from
the kvmclock initialization (mainly because the memblock allocator is
not ready that early during boot).
Add a __bss_decrypted section attribute which can be used when defining
such shared variable. The so-defined variables will be placed in the
.bss..decrypted section. This section will be mapped with C=0 early
during boot.
The .bss..decrypted section has a big chunk of memory that may be unused
when memory encryption is not active, free it when memory encryption is
not active.

- Add a helpful kernel message for the 'too much RAM' case
- Unbreak the VDSO in case that the compiler desides to use indirect
jumps/calls and emits retpolines which cannot be resolved because the
kernel uses its own thunks, which does not work for the VDSO. Make it
use the builtin thunks.
- Re-export start_thread() which was unexported when the 32/64bit

Two users have reported [1] that they have an "extremely unlikely" system
with more than MAX_PA/2 memory and L1TF mitigation is not effective. In
fact it's a CPU with 36bits phys limit (64GB) and 32GB memory, but due to
holes in the e820 map, the main region is almost 500MB over the 32GB limit:
[ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x000000081effffff] usable
Suggestions to use 'mem=32G' to enable the L1TF mitigation while losing the
500MB revealed, that there's an off-by-one error in the check in
l1tf_select_mitigation().
l1tf_pfn_limit() returns the last usable pfn (inclusive) and the range
check in the mitigation path does not take this into account.
Instead of amending the range check, make l1tf_pfn_limit() return the first
PFN which is over the limit which is less error prone. Adjust the other
users accordingly.

Commit 7b25b9cb0d ("x86/xen/time: Initialize pv xen time in

before pagetable_init(). This breaks booting as 32-bit PV guest as the
use of set_fixmap isn't possible at this time on 32-bit.
This can be worked around by populating the needed PMD on 32-bit
kernel earlier.
In order not to reimplement populate_extra_pte() using extend_brk()
for allocating new page tables extend alloc_low_pages() to do that in
case the early page table pool is not yet available.

l1tf_pfn_limit() will overflow unsigned long. This in turn affects
max_swapfile_size() and can lead to swapon returning -EINVAL. This has been

max_swapfile_size() overflows exactly to 1 << 32, thus zero, and produces

Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

The kernel image is mapped into two places in the virtual address space
(addresses without KASLR, of course):
1. The kernel direct map (0xffff880000000000)
2. The "high kernel map" (0xffffffff81000000)
We actually execute out of #2. If we get the address of a kernel symbol,
it points to #2, but almost all physical-to-virtual translations point to
Parts of the "high kernel map" alias are mapped in the userspace page
tables with the Global bit for performance reasons. The parts that we map
to userspace do not (er, should not) have secrets. When PTI is enabled then
the global bit is usually not set in the high mapping and just used to
compensate for poor performance on systems which lack PCID.
This is fine, except that some areas in the kernel image that are adjacent
to the non-secret-containing areas are unused holes. We free these holes
back into the normal page allocator and reuse them as normal kernel memory.
The memory will, of course, get *used* via the normal map, but the alias
mapping is kept.
This otherwise unused alias mapping of the holes will, by default keep the
Global bit, be mapped out to userspace, and be vulnerable to Meltdown.
Remove the alias mapping of these pages entirely. This is likely to
fracture the 2M page mapping the kernel image near these areas, but this
should affect a minority of the area.
The pageattr code changes *all* aliases mapping the physical pages that it
operates on (by default). We only want to modify a single alias, so we
need to tweak its behavior.
This unmapping behavior is currently dependent on PTI being in place.
Going forward, we should at least consider doing this for all
configurations. Having an extra read-write alias for memory is not exactly
ideal for debugging things like random memory corruption and this does
undercut features like DEBUG_PAGEALLOC or future work like eXclusive Page
Frame Ownership (XPFO).

When chunks of the kernel image are freed, free_init_pages() is used
directly. Consolidate the three sites that do this. Also update the
string to give an incrementally better description of that memory versus
what was there before.

The PAE 3-level paging code currently doesn't mitigate L1TF by flipping the
offset bits, and uses the high PTE word, thus bits 32-36 for type, 37-63 for
offset. The lower word is zeroed, thus systems with less than 4GB memory are
safe. With 4GB to 128GB the swap type selects the memory locations vulnerable
to L1TF; with even more memory, also the swap offfset influences the address.
This might be a problem with 32bit PAE guests running on large 64bit hosts.
By continuing to keep the whole swap entry in either high or low 32bit word of
PTE we would limit the swap size too much. Thus this patch uses the whole PAE
PTE with the same layout as the 64bit version does. The macros just become a
bit tricky since they assume the arch-dependent swp_entry_t to be 32bit.

The previous patch has limited swap file size so that large offsets cannot
clear bits above MAX_PA/2 in the pte and interfere with L1TF mitigation.
It assumed that offsets are encoded starting with bit 12, same as pfn. But
on x86_64, offsets are encoded starting with bit 9.
Thus the limit can be raised by 3 bits. That means 16TB with 42bit MAX_PA
and 256TB with 46bit MAX_PA.

For the L1TF workaround its necessary to limit the swap file size to below
MAX_PA/2, so that the higher bits of the swap offset inverted never point
to valid memory.
Add a mechanism for the architecture to override the swap file size check
in swapfile.c and add a x86 specific max swapfile check function that
enforces that limit.
The check is only enabled if the CPU is vulnerable to L1TF.
In VMs with 42bit MAX_PA the typical limit is 2TB now, on a native system
with 46bit PA it is 32TB. The limit is only per individual swap file, so
it's always possible to exceed these limits with multiple swap files or
partitions.

The memremap() implementation checks for attempts to remap System RAM

the following:

00001000-0009fbff : System RAM

...where System RAM intersects Reserved ranges on a sub-page page
granularity.
Given that devmem_is_allowed() special cases any attempt to map System
RAM in the first 1MB of memory, replace page_is_ram() with the more
precise region_intersects() to trap attempts to map disallowed ranges.

Summary:
In current kernels, with PTI enabled, no pages are marked Global. This
potentially increases TLB misses. But, the mechanism by which the Global
bit is set and cleared is rather haphazard. This patch makes the process
more explicit. In the end, it leaves us with Global entries in the page
tables for the areas truly shared by userspace and kernel and increases
TLB hit rates.
The place this patch really shines in on systems without PCIDs. In this
case, we are using an lseek microbenchmark[1] to see how a reasonably
non-trivial syscall behaves. Higher is better:
No Global pages (baseline): 6077741 lseeks/sec
88 Global Pages (this set): 7528609 lseeks/sec (+23.9%)
On a modern Skylake desktop with PCIDs, the benefits are tangible, but not
huge for a kernel compile (lower is better):
No Global pages (baseline): 186.951 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.35% )
28 Global pages (this set): 185.756 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.09% )
-1.195 seconds (-0.64%)
I also re-checked everything using the lseek1 test[1]:
No Global pages (baseline): 15783951 lseeks/sec
28 Global pages (this set): 16054688 lseeks/sec
+270737 lseeks/sec (+1.71%)
The effect is more visible, but still modest.
Details:
The kernel page tables are inherited from head_64.S which rudely marks
them as _PAGE_GLOBAL. For PTI, we have been relying on the grace of
$DEITY and some insane behavior in pageattr.c to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL.
This patch tries to do better.
First, stop filtering out "unsupported" bits from being cleared in the
pageattr code. It's fine to filter out *setting* these bits but it
is insane to keep us from clearing them.
Then, *explicitly* go clear _PAGE_GLOBAL from the kernel identity map.
Do not rely on pageattr to do it magically.
After this patch, we can see that "GLB" shows up in each copy of the
page tables, that we have the same number of global entries in each
and that they are the *same* entries.
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_kernel:11

A quick visual audit also shows that all the entries make sense.

The __PAGE_KERNEL_* page permissions are "raw". They contain bits
that may or may not be supported on the current processor. They need
to be filtered by a mask (currently __supported_pte_mask) to turn them
into a value that we can actually set in a PTE.
These __PAGE_KERNEL_* values all contain _PAGE_GLOBAL. But, with PTI,
we want to be able to support _PAGE_GLOBAL (have the bit set in
__supported_pte_mask) but not have it appear in any of these masks by
default.
This patch creates a new mask, __default_kernel_pte_mask, and applies
it when creating all of the PAGE_KERNEL_* masks. This makes
PAGE_KERNEL_* safe to use anywhere (they only contain supported bits).
It also ensures that PAGE_KERNEL_* contains _PAGE_GLOBAL on PTI=n
kernels but clears _PAGE_GLOBAL when PTI=y.
We also make __default_kernel_pte_mask a non-GPL exported symbol
because there are plenty of driver-available interfaces that take
PAGE_KERNEL_* permissions.

Pull more x86 pti fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Another small stash of fixes for fallout from the PTI work:
- Fix the modules vs. KASAN breakage which was caused by making
MODULES_END depend of the fixmap size. That was done when the cpu
entry area moved into the fixmap, but now that we have a separate
map space for that this is causing more issues than it solves.
- Use the proper cache flush methods for the debugstore buffers as
they are mapped/unmapped during runtime and not statically mapped
at boot time like the rest of the cpu entry area.
- Make the map layout of the cpu_entry_area consistent for 4 and 5
level paging and fix the KASLR vaddr_end wreckage.
- Use PER_CPU_EXPORT for per cpu variable and while at it unbreak
nvidia gfx drivers by dropping the GPL export. The subject line of
the commit tells it the other way around, but I noticed that too
late.
- Fix the ASM alternative macros so they can be used in the middle of
an inline asm block.
- Rename the BUG_CPU_INSECURE flag to BUG_CPU_MELTDOWN so the attack
vector is properly identified. The Spectre mitigations will come
with their own bug bits later"

Aside of that the export was wrong since it was introduced as it should
have been EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL_GPL().
Use the correct PER_CPU export and drop the _GPL to restore the previous

We can use PCID to retain the TLBs across CR3 switches; including those now
part of the user/kernel switch. This increases performance of kernel
entry/exit at the cost of more expensive/complicated TLB flushing.
Now that we have two address spaces, one for kernel and one for user space,
we need two PCIDs per mm. We use the top PCID bit to indicate a user PCID
(just like we use the PFN LSB for the PGD). Since we do TLB invalidation
from kernel space, the existing code will only invalidate the kernel PCID,
we augment that by marking the corresponding user PCID invalid, and upon
switching back to userspace, use a flushing CR3 write for the switch.
In order to access the user_pcid_flush_mask we use PER_CPU storage, which
means the previously established SWAPGS vs CR3 ordering is now mandatory
and required.
Having to do this memory access does require additional registers, most
sites have a functioning stack and we can spill one (RAX), sites without
functional stack need to otherwise provide the second scratch register.
Note: PCID is generally available on Intel Sandybridge and later CPUs.
Note: Up until this point TLB flushing was broken in this series.

Global pages stay in the TLB across context switches. Since all contexts
share the same kernel mapping, these mappings are marked as global pages
so kernel entries in the TLB are not flushed out on a context switch.
But, even having these entries in the TLB opens up something that an
attacker can use, such as the double-page-fault attack:
http://www.ieee-security.org/TC/SP2013/papers/4977a191.pdf
That means that even when PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION switches page tables
on return to user space the global pages would stay in the TLB cache.
Disable global pages so that kernel TLB entries can be flushed before
returning to user space. This way, all accesses to kernel addresses from
userspace result in a TLB miss independent of the existence of a kernel
mapping.
Suppress global pages via the __supported_pte_mask. The user space
mappings set PAGE_GLOBAL for the minimal kernel mappings which are
required for entry/exit. These mappings are set up manually so the
filtering does not take place.

cpu_init() is weird: it's called rather late (after early
identification and after most MMU state is initialized) on the boot
CPU but is called extremely early (before identification) on secondary
CPUs. It's called just late enough on the boot CPU that its CR4 value
isn't propagated to mmu_cr4_features.
Even if we put CR4.PCIDE into mmu_cr4_features, we'd hit two
problems. First, we'd crash in the trampoline code. That's
fixable, and I tried that. It turns out that mmu_cr4_features is
totally ignored by secondary_start_64(), though, so even with the
trampoline code fixed, it wouldn't help.
This means that we don't currently have CR4.PCIDE reliably initialized
before we start playing with cpu_tlbstate. This is very fragile and
tends to cause boot failures if I make even small changes to the TLB
handling code.
Make it more robust: initialize CR4.PCIDE earlier on the boot CPU
and propagate it to secondary CPUs in start_secondary().
( Yes, this is ugly. I think we should have improved mmu_cr4_features
to actually control CR4 during secondary bootup, but that would be
fairly intrusive at this stage. )

Provide a hook in hypervisor_x86 called after setting up initial
memory mapping.
This is needed e.g. by Xen HVM guests to map the hypervisor shared

PCID is a "process context ID" -- it's what other architectures call
an address space ID. Every non-global TLB entry is tagged with a
PCID, only TLB entries that match the currently selected PCID are
used, and we can switch PGDs without flushing the TLB. x86's
PCID is 12 bits.
This is an unorthodox approach to using PCID. x86's PCID is far too
short to uniquely identify a process, and we can't even really
uniquely identify a running process because there are monster
systems with over 4096 CPUs. To make matters worse, past attempts
to use all 12 PCID bits have resulted in slowdowns instead of
speedups.
This patch uses PCID differently. We use a PCID to identify a
recently-used mm on a per-cpu basis. An mm has no fixed PCID
binding at all; instead, we give it a fresh PCID each time it's
loaded except in cases where we want to preserve the TLB, in which
case we reuse a recent value.
Here are some benchmark results, done on a Skylake laptop at 2.3 GHz
(turbo off, intel_pstate requesting max performance) under KVM with
the guest using idle=poll (to avoid artifacts when bouncing between
CPUs). I haven't done any real statistics here -- I just ran them
in a loop and picked the fastest results that didn't look like
outliers. Unpatched means commit a4eb8b9935, so all the
bookkeeping overhead is gone.

x86's lazy TLB mode used to be fairly weak -- it would switch to
init_mm the first time it tried to flush a lazy TLB. This meant an
unnecessary CR3 write and, if the flush was remote, an unnecessary
IPI.
Rewrite it entirely. When we enter lazy mode, we simply remove the
CPU from mm_cpumask. This means that we need a way to figure out
whether we've missed a flush when we switch back out of lazy mode.
I use the tlb_gen machinery to track whether a context is up to
date.
Note to reviewers: this patch, my itself, looks a bit odd. I'm
using an array of length 1 containing (ctx_id, tlb_gen) rather than
just storing tlb_gen, and making it at array isn't necessary yet.
I'm doing this because the next few patches add PCID support, and,
with PCID, we need ctx_id, and the array will end up with a length
greater than 1. Making it an array now means that there will be
less churn and therefore less stress on your eyeballs.
NB: This is dubious but, AFAICT, still correct on Xen and UV.
xen_exit_mmap() uses mm_cpumask() for nefarious purposes and this
patch changes the way that mm_cpumask() works. This should be okay,
since Xen *also* iterates all online CPUs to find all the CPUs it
needs to twiddle.
The UV tlbflush code is rather dated and should be changed.

The kmemleak and debug_pagealloc features both disable using huge pages for
direct mappings so they can do cpa() on page level granularity in any context.
However they only do that for 2MB pages, which means 1GB pages can still be
used if the CPU supports it, unless disabled by a boot param, which is
non-obvious. Disable also 1GB pages when disabling 2MB pages.

Lazy TLB state is currently managed in a rather baroque manner.
AFAICT, there are three possible states:
- Non-lazy. This means that we're running a user thread or a
kernel thread that has called use_mm(). current->mm ==
current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm and
cpu_tlbstate.state == TLBSTATE_OK.
- Lazy with user mm. We're running a kernel thread without an mm
and we're borrowing an mm_struct. We have current->mm == NULL,
current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, cpu_tlbstate.state
!= TLBSTATE_OK (i.e. TLBSTATE_LAZY or 0). The current cpu is set
in mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to
current->active_mm->pgd. The TLB is up to date.
- Lazy with init_mm. This happens when we call leave_mm(). We
have current->mm == NULL, current->active_mm ==
cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, but that mm is only relelvant insofar as
the scheduler is tracking it for refcounting. cpu_tlbstate.state
!= TLBSTATE_OK. The current cpu is clear in
mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to swapper_pg_dir,
i.e. init_mm->pgd.
This patch simplifies the situation. Other than perf, x86 stops
caring about current->active_mm at all. We have
cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm pointing to the mm that CR3 references. The
TLB is always up to date for that mm. leave_mm() just switches us
to init_mm. There are no longer any special cases for mm_cpumask,
and switch_mm() switches mms without worrying about laziness.
After this patch, cpu_tlbstate.state serves only to tell the TLB
flush code whether it may switch to init_mm instead of doing a
normal flush.
This makes fairly extensive changes to xen_exit_mmap(), which used
to look a bit like black magic.
Perf is unchanged. With or without this change, perf may behave a bit
erratically if it tries to read user memory in kernel thread context.
We should build on this patch to teach perf to never look at user
memory when cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm != current->mm.

The UP asm/tlbflush.h generates somewhat nicer code than the SMP version.
Aside from that, it's fallen quite a bit behind the SMP code:
- flush_tlb_mm_range() didn't flush individual pages if the range
was small.
- The lazy TLB code was much weaker. This usually wouldn't matter,
but, if a kernel thread flushed its lazy "active_mm" more than
once (due to reclaim or similar), it wouldn't be unlazied and
would instead pointlessly flush repeatedly.
- Tracepoints were missing.
Aside from that, simply having the UP code around was a maintanence
burden, since it means that any change to the TLB flush code had to
make sure not to break it.
Simplify everything by deleting the UP code.

Under CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, reading System RAM through /dev/mem is
disallowed. However, on x86, the first 1MB was always allowed for BIOS
and similar things, regardless of it actually being System RAM. It was
possible for heap to end up getting allocated in low 1MB RAM, and then
read by things like x86info or dd, which would trip hardened usercopy:
usercopy: kernel memory exposure attempt detected from ffff880000090000 (dma-kmalloc-256) (4096 bytes)
This changes the x86 exception for the low 1MB by reading back zeros for
System RAM areas instead of blindly allowing them. More work is needed to
extend this to mmap, but currently mmap doesn't go through usercopy, so
hardened usercopy won't Oops the kernel.

E820MAP
E820NR
E820_X_MAX
E820MAX
The first two denote byte offsets into the zeropage (struct boot_params),
and can are not used in the kernel and can be removed.
The E820_*_MAX values have an inconsistent structure and it's unclear in any
case what they mean. 'X' presuably goes for extended - but it's not very
expressive altogether.

We introduced memblock_find_dma_reserve() in this commit:
6f2a75369e x86, memblock: Use memblock_memory_size()/memblock_free_memory_size() to get correct dma_reserve
But there's several problems with it:
- The changelog is full of typos and is incomprehensible in general, and
the comments in the code are not much better either.
- The function was inexplicably placed into e820.c, while it has very
little connection to the E820 table: when we call
memblock_find_dma_reserve() then memblock is already set up and we
are not using the E820 table anymore.
- The function is a wrapper around set_dma_reserve(), but changed the 'set'
name to 'find' - actively misleading about its primary purpose, which is
still to set the DMA-reserve value.
- The function is limited to 64-bit systems, but neither the changelog nor
the comments explain why. The change would appear to be relevant to
32-bit systems as well, as the ISA DMA zone is the first 16 MB of RAM.
So address some of these problems:
- Move it into arch/x86/mm/init.c, next to the other zone setup related
functions.
- Clean up the code flow and names of local variables a bit.
- Rename it to memblock_set_dma_reserve()
- Improve the comments.
No change in functionality. Enabling it for 32-bit systems is left
for a separate patch.

The maximum size of e820 map array for EFI systems is defined as
E820_X_MAX (E820MAX + 3 * MAX_NUMNODES).
In x86_64 defconfig, this ends up with E820_X_MAX = 320, e820 and e820_saved
are 6404 bytes each.
With larger configs, for example Fedora kernels, E820_X_MAX = 3200, e820
and e820_saved are 64004 bytes each. Most of this space is wasted.
Typical machines have some 20-30 e820 areas at most.
After previous patch, e820 and e820_saved are pointers to e280 maps.
Change them to initially point to maps which are __initdata.
At the very end of kernel init, just before __init[data] sections are freed
in free_initmem(), allocate smaller blocks, copy maps there,
and change pointers.
The late switch makes sure that all functions which can be used to change
e820 maps are no longer accessible (they are all __init functions).
