The arm64 kernel's segment alignment is fixed at 64 KB for any page size, and relocatable kernels are able to fix up any misalignment of the kernel image with respect to the 2 MB section alignment that is mandated by the arm64 boot protocol. Let's increase the PE/COFF section alignment to the same value, so that kernels loaded by the UEFI PE/COFF loader are guaranteed to end up at an address that doesn't require any reallocation to be done if the kernel is relocatable.

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.
