This patch aligns MODULES_END to the beginning of the fixmap section. It optimizes the space available for both sections. The address is pre-computed based on the number of pages required by the fixmap section. It will allow GDT remapping in the fixmap section. The current MODULES_END static address does not provide enough space for the kernel to support a large number of processors.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
