Subject: [PATCH 012/272] linuxefi fix boot params
+ From https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/x86/boot.txt:
+ The memory for struct boot_params could be allocated anywhere (even above 4G)
+ and initialized to all zero.
+ Then, the setup header at offset 0x01f1 of kernel image on should be
+ loaded into struct boot_params and examined
