Subject: kexec/i386: remove PAGE_SIZE alignment from relocate_kernel
From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx>
Remove the PAGE_SIZE alignment from relocate_kernel(). Before kexec jump
patches are merged, control page is mapped to relocate_kernel in kexec
page tables, so relocate_kernel must be PAGE_SIZE aligned. Now, control
page is mapped to identity mapped address, so relocate_kernel need not to
be PAGE_SIZE aligned any more. This can reduce a few KB from kernel text
segement.
