x86: increase the kernel text limit to 512 MB
people sometimes do crazy stuff like building really large static arrays into their kernels or building allyesconfig kernels. Give more space to the kernel and push modules up a bit: kernel has 512 MB and modules have 1.5 GB. Should be enough for a few years ;-) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
