    The following KASLR implementation allows to randomize the kernel mapping:
    
    - virtually: we expect the bootloader to provide a seed in the device-tree
    - physically: only implemented in the EFI stub, it relies on the firmware to
      provide a seed using EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL. arm64 has a similar implementation
      hence the patch 3 factorizes KASLR related functions for riscv to take
      advantage.
    
    The new virtual kernel location is limited by the early page table that only
    has one PUD and with the PMD alignment constraint, the kernel can only take
    < 512 positions.
