This patch add support to boot kernel from places other than KERNELBASE. Since CONFIG_RELOCATABLE has already supported, what we need to do is map or copy kernel to a proper place and relocate. Freescale Book-E parts expect lowmem to be mapped by fixed TLB entries(TLB1). The TLB1 entries are not suitable to map the kernel directly in a randomized region, so we chose to copy the kernel to a proper place and restart to relocate. The offset of the kernel was not randomized yet(a fixed 64M is set). We will randomize it in the next patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
