[PATCH] x86_64: Add boot option to disable randomized mappings and cleanup

Browse Source 
AMD SimNow!'s JIT doesn't like them at all in the guest. For distribution
installation it's easiest if it's a boot time option.

Also I moved the variable to a more appropiate place and make
it independent from sysctl

And marked __read_mostly which it is.
