The series contains stuff I caught last week while working on some x86 code. It can be considered a material for fixes or for next, I'm okay with either, although leaning more towards fixes :P
Notes on patches: * 0001: I didn't put any "Fixes:" tag since it's not linear. The lines changed with this patch came from the initial x86 KASLR series, but that unconditional jump to the kernel beginning already was there. It goes at least from the set that brought relocatable kernel support to x86, but this is quite prehistoric already and might not look really relatable. So up to you whether it needs any. * 0002: doesn't fix anything, except that having any files listed in that whitelist already is an architecture bug :D And it wouldn't be convenient to decouple it from #0001, but up to you as well.
From v1[0]: * collect the Tested-by tags (Jiri); * don't add pathetic returns after noreturn error() (Jiri); * debug-print the entry point offset via debug_putaddr() before booting (Jiri); * always have an empty line before return statements (Jiri).
