x86/kaslr: Avoid the setup_data area when picking location
commit 0cacbfbeb5077b63d5d3cf6df88b14ac12ad584b upstream. The KASLR location-choosing logic needs to avoid the setup_data list memory areas as well. Without this, it would be possible to have the ASLR position stomp on the memory, ultimately causing the boot to fail.
