Subject: [PATCH 0/3] x86/KASLR: Build identity mappings on demand

I'm going back to small steps. :)

This series lets the x86_64 compressed boot environment build
page table identity mappings on demand. This will be used once
we begin randomizing the physical memory position beyond the
existing identity maps.
