Subject: [PATCH v4 08/20] x86, kaslr: Get correct max_addr for relocs pointer

From: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@...nel.org>

Relocation handling performs bounds checking on the relocated
addresses. The existing code uses output_len (VO size plus relocs
size) as the max address. This is not right since the max_addr check
should stop at the end of VO and exclude bss, brk, etc, which follows.
The valid range should be VO [_text, __bss_start] in the loaded
physical address space.

In this patch, add export for __bss_start to voffset.h and use it to
get the correct max_addr.
