[Xen-devel] [PATCH v1 08/27] x86/CPU: Adapt assembly for PIE support

[Thomas Garnier <thgarnie@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Change the assembly code to use only relative references of symbols for the
kernel to be PIE compatible. Use the new _ASM_GET_PTR macro instead of
the 'mov $symbol, %dst' construct to not have an absolute reference.

Position Independent Executable (PIE) support will allow to extended the
KASLR randomization range below the -2G memory limit.
