Youling Tang 7eca645917 LoongArch: Automatically disable kaslr if boot from kexec_file
commit c8168b4faf1d62cbb320a3e518ad31cdd567cb05 upstream.

Automatically disable kaslr when the kernel loads from kexec_file.

kexec_file loads the secondary kernel image to a non-linked address,
inherently providing KASLR-like randomization.

However, on LoongArch where System RAM may be non-contiguous, enabling
KASLR for the second kernel may relocate it to an invalid memory region
and cause a boot failure. Thus, we disable KASLR when "kexec_file" is
detected in the command line.

To ensure compatibility with older kernels loaded via kexec_file, this
patch should be backported to stable branches.

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.
