If the running kernel has 5-level paging activated, the 5-level paging mode is preserved across kexec. If the kexec'ed kernel does not contain support for handling active 5-level paging mode in the decompressor, the decompressor will crash with #GP. Prevent this situation at load time. If 5-level paging is active, check the xloadflags whether the kexec kernel can handle 5-level paging at least in the decompressor. If not, reject the load attempt and print out an error message.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
