There are two funcs to get page_offset:
get_kernel_page_offset()
get_page_offset()
Since get_kernel_page_offset() does not observe the kernel formula, and
remove it. Unify them in order to introduce 52-bits VA kernel more
easily in the coming patch.

After kernel commit 7bc1a0f9e176 ("arm64: mm: use single quantity to
represent the PA to VA translation"), phys_offset can be negative if
running 52-bits kernel on 48-bits hardware.
So changing phys_offset from unsigned to signed.

And apparently, these variables are wrongly declared multiple times. So
remove duplicated declaration.

Currently the kexec_file_load() support for arm64 doesn't allow
handling zlib compressed (i.e. Image.gz) image.
Since most distributions use 'make zinstall' rule inside
'arch/arm64/boot/Makefile' to install the arm64
Image.gz compressed file inside the boot destination directory (for e.g.
/boot), currently we cannot use kexec_file_load() to load vmlinuz (or
Image.gz):
# file /boot/vmlinuz
/boot/vmlinuz: gzip compressed data, was "Image", <..snip..>, max
compression, from Unix, original size 21945120
Now, since via kexec_file_load() we pass the 'fd' of Image.gz
(compressed file) via the following command line ...
# kexec -s -l /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname
-r`.img --reuse-cmdline
... kernel returns -EINVAL error value, as it is not able to locate
the magic number =0x644d5241, which is expected in the 64-byte header
of the decompressed kernel image.
We can fix this in user-space kexec-tools, which handles an
'Image.gz' being passed via kexec_file_load(), using an approach
as follows:
a). Copy the contents of Image.gz to a temporary file.
b). Decompress (gunzip-decompress) the contents inside the
temporary file.
c). Pass the 'fd' of the temporary file to the kernel space. So
basically the kernel space still gets a decompressed kernel
image to load via kexec-tools
I tested this patch for the following three use-cases:
1. Uncompressed Image file:
#kexec -s -l Image --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname -r`.img --reuse-cmdline
2. Signed Image file:
#kexec -s -l Image.signed --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname -r`.img --reuse-cmdline
3. zlib compressed Image.gz file:
#kexec -s -l /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname -r`.img --reuse-cmdline

available)
On certain arm64 platforms, it has been noticed that due
to a hole at the start of physical ram exposed to kernel
(i.e. it doesn't start from address 0), the kernel still
calculates the 'memstart_addr' kernel variable as 0.
Whereas the SYSTEM_RAM or IOMEM_RESERVED range in '/proc/iomem'
would carry a first entry whose start address is non-zero
(as the physical ram exposed to the kernel starts from a
non-zero address).
In such cases, if we rely on '/proc/iomem' entries to
calculate the phys_offset, then we will have mismatch
between the user-space and kernel space 'PHYS_OFFSET'
value. The present 'kexec-tools' code does the same
in 'get_memory_ranges_iomem_cb()' function when it makes
a call to 'set_phys_offset()'. This can cause the vmcore
generated via 'kexec-tools' to miss the last few bytes as
the first '/proc/iomem' starts from a non-zero address.
Please see [0] for the original bug-report from Yanjiang Jin.
The same can be fixed in the following manner:
1. For newer kernel (>= 4.19, with commit 23c85094fe1895caefdd
["proc/kcore: add vmcoreinfo note to /proc/kcore"] available),
'kcore' contains a new PT_NOTE which carries the VMCOREINFO
information.
If the same is available, one should prefer the same to
retrieve 'PHYS_OFFSET' value exported by the kernel as this
is now the standard interface exposed by kernel for sharing
machine specific details with the user-land as per
the arm64 kernel maintainers (see [1]) .
2. For older kernels, we can try and determine the PHYS_OFFSET
value from PT_LOAD segments inside 'kcore' via some jugglery
of the correct virtual and physical address combinations.
As a fallback, we still support getting the PHYS_OFFSET values
from '/proc/iomem', to maintain backward compatibility.
Testing:
-------
- Tested on my apm-mustang and qualcomm amberwing board with upstream
kernel (4.20.0-rc7) for both KASLR and non-KASLR boot cases.
