From: Jason Cooper <jason@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: x86: use simpler API for random address requests Currently, all callers to randomize_range() set the length to 0 and calculate end by adding a constant to the start address. We can simplify the API to remove a bunch of needless checks and variables. Use the new randomize_addr(start, range) call to set the requested address.
