| |
If a bootloader enabled 5-level paging before handing off control to kernel, we may want to switch it to 4-level paging when kernel is compiled with CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=n.
Let's modify decompression code to handle the situation.
This will fail if the kernel image is loaded above 64TiB since 4-level paging would not be able to access the image.
