[PATCH RFC 0/4] x86/fixmap: Unify FIXADDR_TOP



This patchset unifies FIXADDR_TOP as a variable for x86, allowing the
fixmap area to be movable and relocated with the kernel image in the
x86/PIE patchset [0]. This enables the kernel image to be relocated in
the top 512G of the address space.

    area
  x86/fixmap: Move vsyscall page out of fixmap area
  x86/fixmap: Unify FIXADDR_TOP
