commita9f2f6865dupstream. The KASLR offset is added to vmcoreinfo in arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo(), so that it can be found by crash when processing kernel dumps. However, arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is called during a subsys_initcall, so if the kernel crashes before that, we have no vmcoreinfo and no KASLR offset. Fix this by storing the KASLR offset in the lowcore, where the vmcore_info pointer will be stored, and where it can be found by crash. In order to make it distinguishable from a real vmcore_info pointer, mark it as uneven (KASLR offset itself is aligned to THREAD_SIZE). When arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() stores the real vmcore_info pointer in the lowcore, it overwrites the KASLR offset. At that point, the KASLR offset is not yet added to vmcoreinfo, so we also need to move the mem_assign_absolute() behind the vmcoreinfo_append_str().

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.
