Create a configurable hole in the linear address space at the top

much space the hypervisor is allowed to steal, but in the end, it
seems most likely that a fixed constant size will be chosen for
the compiled kernel, potentially propagated to an information
page used by paravirtual initialization to determine interface
compatibility.

Deja-vu ;-) And still works in context of Xen, but we've just let the
subarch define the __FIXADDR_TOP. Having it be dynamic could be
interesting.
Here's dynamic. I hope it still applies.
Allow creation of an compile time hole at the top of linear address space.
Extended to allow a dynamic hole in linear address space, 7/2005. This
required some serious hacking to get everything perfect, but the end result
appears to function quite nicely. Everyone can now share the appreciation
of pseudo-undocumented ELF OS fields, which means core dumps, debuggers
and even broken or obsolete linkers may continue to work.
