[Impact]
Request from Google to backport "x86/kaslr: Expose and use the end of the
physical memory address space" to address intermittent CUDA hangs.

[Fix]
Focal: backport
Jammy: backport
Noble: clean cherry-pick

[Test]
Compile and boot tested.

[Where problems could occur]
The fix directly affects memory management in x86 systems, specifically
when KASLR is enabled.
