Large model code is suboptimal, given that each symbol reference involves a literal load that goes through the D-cache, reducing cache utilization. But more importantly, literals are not instructions but part of .text nonetheless, and hence mapped with executable permissions. So let's get rid of our dependency on the large model for KASLR, by: - reducing the full randomization range to 4 GB, thereby ensuring that ADRP references between modules and the kernel are always in range, - reduce the spillover range to 4 GB as well, so that we fallback to a region that is still guaranteed to be in range - move the randomization window of the core kernel to the middle of the VMALLOC space Note that KASAN always uses the module region outside of the vmalloc space, so keep the kernel close to that if KASAN is enabled.
