[PATCH v2 3/5] efi/x86: Add kernel preferred address to PE header

From: Arvind Sankar
Date: Tue Mar 03 2020 - 17:12:16 EST


Store the kernel's link address as ImageBase in the PE header. Note that
the PE specification requires the ImageBase to be 64k aligned. The
preferred address should almost always satisfy that, except for 32-bit
kernel if the configuration has been customized.
