Now the kernel base is a fixed value - KERNELBASE. To support KASLR, we
need a variable to store the kernel base.

The names of the #defines and variables we use for these values are not
very consistent already, but using kimage_vaddr makes it worse I think.

Isn't this going to have the same value as kernstart_addr, but the
virtual rather than physical address?

If so kernstart_virt_addr would seem better.

cheers

Yes, that's true.

OK, I will take kernstart_virt_addr if no better name appears.
