H A Dfixmap.cdiff b730b0f2b1fcfbdaed816152cc71993fd708aa11 Wed Dec 13 09:40:27 CET 2023 Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> arm64: mm: Move fixmap region above vmemmap region

Move the fixmap region above the vmemmap region, so that the start of
the vmemmap delineates the end of the region available for vmalloc and
vmap allocations and the randomized placement of the kernel and modules.

In a subsequent patch, we will take advantage of this to reclaim most of
the vmemmap area when running a 52-bit VA capable build with 52-bit
virtual addressing disabled at runtime.

Note that the existing guard region of 256 MiB covers the fixmap and PCI
I/O regions as well, so we can reduce it 8 MiB, which is what we use in
other places too.
