Hi Kees,

Checking handle_relocations() again, I just didn't notice it's mandatory
to do the relocations handling in i386. So in this function delta is
checked to see if it's a kaslr relocation handling. This might be a
little confusing. But I am fine with it.

Per your comment, you prefer to compare the output before and after
choose_kernel_location(). That's also good, Lu Yinghai posted a draft
patch in this way before, however the checking and the delta calculation
are not correct. I changed that and test all cases, it works well. So
do you like this it? If yes I will repost it.
