Subject: [PATCHv4 3/4] x86/64/kexec: Map original relocate_kernel() in init_transition_pgtable()
The init_transition_pgtable() function sets up transitional page tables.
It ensures that the relocate_kernel() function is present in the
identity mapping at the same location as in the kernel page tables.
relocate_kernel() switches to the identity mapping, and the function
must be present at the same location in the virtual address space before
and after switching page tables.
init_transition_pgtable() maps a copy of relocate_kernel() in
image->control_code_page at the relocate_kernel() virtual address, but
the original physical address of relocate_kernel() would also work.
It is safe to use original relocate_kernel() physical address cannot be
overwritten until swap_pages() is called, and the relocate_kernel()
virtual address will not be used by then.
Map the original relocate_kernel() at the relocate_kernel() virtual
address in the identity mapping. It is preparation to replace the
init_transition_pgtable() implementation with a call to
kernel_ident_mapping_init().
Note that while relocate_kernel() switches to the identity mapping, it
does not flush global TLB entries (CR4.PGE is not cleared). This means
that in most cases, the kernel still runs relocate_kernel() from the
original physical address before the change.
