I'll implement my own allocator later. Currently using linked-list
allocator [1] to manage the kernel heap (as in kmalloc, not vmalloc). It
manages the ID-mapped region (from VA 0xffff_8000_0000_0000). This
allocator is initialized to use the _largest_ physical memory block. If
the kernel image (text and data) live in this zone then skip the
occupied part.
Key difference between kmalloc and vmalloc:
- kmalloc pretty much manages the physical memory: the allocated address
are within the id-mapped region (see above) therefore the allocated
memory must also be contigous in physical memory. Such memory MUST NOT
page fault. This is prone to fragmentation, so do not use kmalloc to
allocate big objects (e.g. bigger than one 4k page).
- vmalloc manages kernel heap memory and the mapping is managed by
paging. Such memory could trigger pagefault in kernel mode.
Note that the kmalloc conflicts with the previous used stack based PMA
as they operates on the same VM zone.

1. allow unexpected cfgs in lib.rs, in this case
"no_global_oom_handling" is cause warnings [1]
2. for large code models the compiler (rust linkers) now put code and
data in `.ltext`, `.ldata`, `.lbss`, `.lrodata` instead of the
same `.text` , `.data` ... etc. We are adjusting accordingly in the
linker script.
3. unsafe assertions identified undefined behaviours, in this case a repr(C)
struct was not mared as repr(packed), therefore having an unexpected
size. The unsafe assertions was not enabled by default in debug
builds so the idt setup code with from_raw_parts_mut() has been
working on UB. Glad we can catch this....

Also renamed a few symbols to avoid confusion.

should be 0xffff_8020_0000_0000, but I used the id mapping by mistake
(0xffff_8000_0000_0000)
