x86/KASLR: Clarify purpose of each get_random_long()
KASLR will be calling get_random_long() twice, but the debug output
won't distinguishing between them. This patch adds a report on when it
is fetching the physical vs virtual address. With this, once the virtual
offset is separate, the report changes from:
KASLR using RDTSC...
KASLR using RDTSC...
into:
Physical KASLR using RDTSC...
Virtual KASLR using RDTSC...
