Today, the only way to load kernels whose size is greater than 8Mbytes is to
activate CONFIG_PIN_TLB. Otherwise, the physical memory initially mapped is
limited to 8Mbytes. This patch adds the capability to select the size of initial
memory between 8/16/24 Mbytes and this is regardless of whether CONFIG_PIN_TLB
is active or not. It allows to load "big" kernels (for instance when activating
CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT) without having to activate CONFIG_PIN_TLB.
