Subject: [PATCH] x86 boot: pass E820 memory map entries more than 128 via
 linked list of setup data

Because of the size limits of struct boot_params (zero page), the
maximum number of E820 memory map entries can be passed to kernel is
128. As pointed by Paul Jackson, there is some machine produced by SGI
with so many nodes that the number of E820 memory map entries is more
than 128. To enabling Linux kernel on these system, a new setup data
type named SETUP_E820_EXT is defined to pass additional memory map
entries to Linux kernel.

This patch is based on x86/auto-latest branch of git-x86 tree and has
been tested on x86_64 and i386 platform.
