So this would be fine as-is for v4.1, but I think we want to attempt 
to fix this in x86/urgent so that we don't have to revert the kaslr 
changes in v4.0, so it would be awesome if you could split it into two 
parts: the fix, plus the orphaned run_size removal?

That would make it easier to bisect to, should anything break ...

Thanks,

	Ingo
