The EFI stub is intimately coupled with the kernel, and takes advantage of this by relocating the kernel at a weaker alignment than the documented boot protocol mandates. However, it does so by assuming it can align the kernel to the segment alignment, and assumes that this is 64K. In subsequent patches, we'll have to consider other details to determine this de-facto alignment constraint. This patch adds a new EFI_KIMG_ALIGN definition that will track the kernel's de-facto alignment requirements. Subsequent patches will modify this as required.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
