Hello Baoquan,

Thanks for your work, I have some comments below.

>In kernel patchset "x86/mm: memory area address KASLR", PAGE_OFFSET,
>VMALLOC_START and VMEMMAP_START are all randomized. Please check below

>
>And these need be exported into vmcoreinfo and tell makedumpfile. In
>this patch get and handle them to support MM randomization.

These *_END_* are no longer used, it's better to remove the definitions
of them.

Is this just a debug message ?

(I should have said this when you post the early kaslr patch.)
This logic is only for x86_64, I don't like to take it out to 
here(general pass) with #ifdef. Is there any necessity to write
this code here ?

Why don't you write "info->release" in [PATCH 1/3] ?
