-    arm64: Change tcr_el1_t1sz variable name to TCR_EL1_T1SZ
-    
-    Since linux kernel commit bbdbc11804ff ("arm64/crash_core: Export
-    TCR_EL1.T1SZ in vmcoreinfo") [available in linux-next now], the name
-    of tcr_el1_t1sz vmcoreinfo variable has been changed to TCR_EL1_T1SZ.
-    
-    Make a similar change in crash-utility.

-
-Setting values of the arguments of calc_kaslr_offset() should be done
-at the end of the function. Currently, they are set in the middle
-where their values could still be changed according to
-get_kaslr_offset_from_vmcoreinfo(). This behavior will be problematic
-in the later commits when we implement a trial-and-error approach
-because the value of kaslr_offset could be passed to the outside of
-calc_kaslr_offset() unexpectedly. Thus, fix this first.

-Subject: [PATCH 4/4] kaslr: fix failure of calculating kaslr_offset due to an
- sadump format restriction
-
-We faced recently a memory dump collected by sadump where unused part
-of register values are non-zero. For the crash dump, calculating
-kaslr_offset fails because it is based on the assumption that unused
-part of register values in the sadump format are always zero cleared.
-
-The problem is that used and unused part of register values are
-rigorously indistinguishable in the sadump format. Although there is
-kernel data structure that represents a map between logical cpu
-numbers and lapic ids, they cannot be used in order to calculate
-kaslr_offset.
-
-To fix this, we have no choice but use a trial-and-error approach: try
-to use each entry of register values in order until we find a good
-pair of cr3 and idtr by which we can refer to linux_banner symbol as
-expected.
-
-This fix is for the sadump specific issue, so there is no functional
-change for the other crash dump formats.
-
- [ lijiang: adjust the code indent. ]
