x86/mm/64: Make a full PGD-entry size hole in the memory map
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Shrink vmalloc space from 16384TiB to 12800TiB to enlarge the hole starting
at 0xff90000000000000 to be a full PGD entry.

A subsequent patch will use this hole for the pagetable isolation LDT
alias.
