Please resend this:

- Express the commit in the conventional fashion

e6023367d779 ("x86, kaslr: Prevent .bss from overlaping initrd")

- So that we all don't have to go look up the commit to find out
what happened.

- So people can look up the commit in other trees, where the hash
might change.

- Cc the people who wrote and committed the patch.

- The offending commit has cc:stable, so have a think about adding a
cc:stable to this one as well.

- The title is cute, but not terribly informative.
