From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Peter Jones <pjones@redhat.com>
Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2018 16:12:27 -0400
Subject: [PATCH] x86-efi: Allow initrd+params+cmdline allocations above 4GB.
This enables everything except the kernel itself to be above 4GB.
Putting the kernel up there still doesn't work, because of the way
params->code32_start is used.
