To me this is completely independent of kaslr. This is moving towards a better design to pass memory map to second kernel which in turn will also solve the issue of too many memory ranges on large machines. Also, could you get hold of a machine with calgary IOMMU and test that --pass-memmap option makes those calgary machines work? Thanks Vivek
