This patch modifies the x86_64 kernel so that it can be loaded and run at any 2M aligned address, below 512G. The technique used is to compile the decompressor with -fPIC and modify it so the decompressor is fully relocatable. For the main kernel the page tables are modified so the kernel remains at the same virtual address. In addition a variable phys_base is kept that holds the physical address the kernel is loaded at. __pa_symbol is modified to add that when we take the address of a kernel symbol. When loaded with a normal bootloader the decompressor will decompress the kernel to 2M and it will run there. This both ensures the relocation code is always working, and makes it easier to use 2M pages for the kernel and the cpu. AK: changed to not make RELOCATABLE default in Kconfig Signed-off-by: NEric W.

Remove some of the unnecessary differences between arch/i386 and arch/x86_64. This patch fixes more whitespace issues, some miscellaneous typos, a wrong URL and a factually incorrect statement about the current boot sector code.

For one kernel to report a crash another kernel has created we need to have 2 kernels loaded simultaneously in memory. To accomplish this the two kernels need to built to run at different physical addresses. This patch adds the CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START option to the x86_64 kernel so we can do just that. You need to know what you are doing and the ramifications are before changing this value, and most users won't care so I have made it depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED bzImage kernels will work and run at a different address when compiled with this option but they will still load at 1MB. If you need a kernel loaded at a different address as well you need to boot a vmlinux.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
