+Subject: [PATCH 101/454] ARM64: Enable Kernel Address Space Randomization
+ (#1792)
+
+Randomization allows the mapping between virtual addresses and physical
+address to be different on each boot. This makes it more difficult
+to exploit security vulnerabilities that require knowledge of fixed
+hardware addresses.
+
+The firmware generates a 8 byte random number during bootup and stores
+it in the device tree under chosen/kaslr-seed. This number is used
+to randomize the address mapping.
+
+This change enables this feature in the build configuration for ARM64.
