This means that a KASLR offset of less than 2 MiB is simply the product
of this physical displacement, and no randomization has actually taken
place. Currently, we use 'kaslr_offset() > 0' to decide whether or not
randomization has occurred, and so we misidentify this case.
Making an explicit function to check if we've enabled KASLR is also a
nice cleanup in itself.
