On arm64, we have made some changes over the past year to the way the kernel itself is allocated and to how it deals with the initrd and FDT. This patch brings the allocation logic in the EFI stub in line with that, which is necessary because the introduction of KASLR has created the possibility for the initrd to be allocated in a place where the kernel may not be able to map it. (This is mostly a theoretical scenario, since it only affects systems where the physical memory footprint exceeds the size of the linear mapping.) Since we know the kernel itself will be covered by the linear mapping, choose a suitably sized window (i.e., based on the size of the linear region) covering the kernel when allocating memory for the initrd. The FDT may be anywhere in memory on arm64 now that we map it via the fixmap, so we can lift the address restriction there completely.
