The KASLR code path in the arm64 version of the EFI stub incorporates some overly complicated logic to randomly allocate a region of the right alignment: there is no need to randomize the placement of the kernel modulo 2 MiB separately from the placement of the 2 MiB aligned allocation itself - we can simply follow the same logic used by the non-randomized placement, which is to allocate at the correct alignment, and only take TEXT_OFFSET into account if it is not a round multiple of the alignment.

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.
