    x86/KASLR: Initialize mapping_info every time · 434a6c9f

    As it turns out, mapping_info DOES need to be initialized every
    time, because pgt_data address could be changed during kernel
    relocation. So it can not be build time assigned.
    
    Without this, page tables were not being corrected updated, which
    could cause reboots when a physical address beyond 2G was chosen.
