The setup_data is a bit awkward to use for extremely large data objects, both because the setup_data header has to be adjacent to the data object and because it has a 32-bit length field. However, it is important that intermediate stages of the boot process have a way to identify which chunks of memory are occupied by kernel data. Thus introduce an uniform way to specify such indirect data as setup_indirect struct and SETUP_INDIRECT type. And finally bump setup_header version in arch/x86/boot/header.S. Suggested-by: H.
