A 5-level paging capable machine can have memory above 46-bit in the physical address space. This memory is only addressable in the 5-level paging mode: we don't have enough virtual address space to create direct mapping for such memory in the 4-level paging mode
Teach KASLR to avoid memory regions above MAXMEM or truncate the region if the end is above MAXMEM.
