Stephen Kitt 89502a0197 x86/mm: Fix the 56-bit addresses memory map in Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.txt 
This fixes a PT typo, and the following 56-bit address-space
addresses:

  * the hole extends from 0100000000000000 to feffffffffffffff
  * the KASAN shadow memory area stops at fffffbffffffffff (see kasan.h)

Complete virtual memory map with 4-level page tables
====================================================
Notes:
- Negative addresses such as "-23 TB" are absolute addresses in bytes, counted down
from the top of the 64-bit address space. It's easier to understand the layout
when seen both in absolute addresses and in distance-from-top notation.
For example 0xffffe90000000000 == -23 TB, it's 23 TB lower than the top of the
64-bit address space (ffffffffffffffff).
Note that as we get closer to the top of the address space, the notation changes
from TB to GB and then MB/KB.
- "16M TB" might look weird at first sight, but it's an easier to visualize size
notation than "16 EB", which few will recognize at first sight as 16 exabytes.
It also shows it nicely how incredibly large 64-bit address space is.

Notes:
- With 56-bit addresses, user-space memory gets expanded by a factor of 512x,
from 0.125 PB to 64 PB. All kernel mappings shift down to the -64 PB starting
offset and many of the regions expand to support the much larger physical
memory supported.

Architecture defines a 64-bit virtual address. Implementations can support
less. Currently supported are 48- and 57-bit virtual addresses. Bits 63
through to the most-significant implemented bit are sign extended.
This causes hole between user space and kernel addresses if you interpret them
as unsigned.
The direct mapping covers all memory in the system up to the highest
memory address (this means in some cases it can also include PCI memory
holes).
vmalloc space is lazily synchronized into the different PML4/PML5 pages of
the processes using the page fault handler, with init_top_pgt as
reference.
We map EFI runtime services in the 'efi_pgd' PGD in a 64Gb large virtual
memory window (this size is arbitrary, it can be raised later if needed).
The mappings are not part of any other kernel PGD and are only available
during EFI runtime calls.
Note that if CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY is enabled, the direct mapping of all
physical memory, vmalloc/ioremap space and virtual memory map are randomized.
Their order is preserved but their base will be offset early at boot time.
Be very careful vs. KASLR when changing anything here. The KASLR address
range must not overlap with anything except the KASAN shadow area, which is
correct as KASAN disables KASLR.
For both 4- and 5-level layouts, the STACKLEAK_POISON value in the last 2MB
hole: ffffffffffff4111
