[PATCH] x86_64: Move kernel to 2MB
As suggested by Andi (and Alan), move the default kernel location from 1Mb to 2Mb, to align to the start of a TLB entry. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
