Kconfig bikeshedding: how about putting FG_KASLR in arch/Kconfig, add
a "depends on ARCH_HAS_FG_KASLR", and remove the arch-specific depends.
Then in arch/x86 have ARCH_HAS_FG_KASLR as a def_bool y with the
RANDOMIZE_BASE && X86_64 depends.
This will more cleanly split the build elements (compiler flags) from
the arch elements (64-bit x86, arch-specific flags, etc).
With that split out:
