As a general comment, I can't say I'm thrilled about sticking the copied
setup data at the end of the initial pagetables. This is already a
fairly complex area, and changing it touches a surprisingly large number
of places. I wonder if there isn't a better way to deal with this
(possibly by fixing up the generation of the initial pagetables in the
process).
Or more simply, define a max size for this data, and copy it into an
initdata area (which, being initdata, can be quite large without wasting
lots of memory).

What are the alignment rules for this structure? Is it always 64-bit
aligned? What about the relationship of len and data?
