Hi Atsushi,

This is the definition of KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE
in arch/x86/include/asm/page_64_types.h. It's not 0xffffffff88000000.
KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE is a size value.

#define KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE_DEFAULT      (512 * 1024 * 1024)
#if defined(CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE) && \
        CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET > KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE_DEFAULT
#define KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE   CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET
#else
#define KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE      KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE_DEFAULT
#endif

Thanks
