I think it's possible to have the copy action happen at boot-time or
during the prepare phase. (RISCV in prepare, MIPS in boot-time)

For existing kernels, the low 2M has been reserved by
memblock_reserve(PHYS_OFFSET, 0x200000), maybe it is acceptable to keep
the low 2M behavior.

Yes, we need to use "mem=YM at 2M" if the low 2M is reserved.

It is also feasible to dynamically allocate control pages, but it is
easier to use a low 2M approach. What do you think, Huacai?
