Fix head_32.S gcc bignum warnings when CONFIG_PAE=y.

The assembler was stumbling over the 64-bit constant 0x100000000 in the
KPMDS #define.
Testing: a cmp(1) on head_32.o before and after shows the binary is unchanged.

The .asciz directive takes any number of strings, but each one is zero-
terminated, and string pasting is not done as in C. That results in only the
first line being output.
Replace .asciz with multiple .ascii directives and terminate with .asciz.

Specifically the boot time page tables in a CONFIG_X86_PAE=y enabled
kernel are in PAE format.
early_ioremap is updated to use the standard page table accessors.
Clear any mappings beyond max_low_pfn from the boot page tables in
native_pagetable_setup_start because the initial mappings can extend
beyond the range of physical memory and into the vmalloc area.
Derived from patches by Eric Biederman and H. Peter Anvin.

I am preparing to convert the boot time page table to the kernels
native format. To achieve that I need to enable PAE. Enabling PSE
and the no execute bit would not hurt. So this patch modifies
the boot cpu path to execute all of the kernels enable code
if and only if we have the proper bits set in mmu_cr4_features.

Currently in head_32.S there are two ways we test to see if we
are the boot cpu. By looking at %ebx and by looking at the
static variable ready. When changing things around I have
found that it gets tricky to preserve %ebx. So this
patch just switches head.S over to the more reliable
test of always using ready.
Hopefully later we can kill these tests entirely.

After 17d57a9206 ("x86: fix x86-32 early
fixmap initialization.") removing lg.ko caused a printk from vunmap:
mm/memory.c:115: bad pgd 004b3027.
On the second use after module load, the kernel crashes.
This fixes the immediate problem (accessed and dirty bits not set as
expected in pmd_none_or_clear_bad). I can't see why this would cause
a crash, but I haven't been able to reproduce it once this is applied.

Thanks for the reminder I thought we had fixed this problem a while ago.

Make <asm/setup.h> usable by the boot code.

head_32.S (it is still supported from the boot loader point of
view, since it is converted to the new command-line protocol by the
boot code.)

This patch uses the updated boot protocol to do paravirtualized boot.
If the boot version is >= 2.07, then it will do two things:
1. Check the bootparams loadflags to see if we should reload the
segment registers and clear interrupts. This is appropriate
for normal native boot and some paravirtualized environments, but
inapproprate for others.
2. Check the hardware architecture, and dispatch to the appropriate
kernel entrypoint. If the bootloader doesn't set this, then we
simply do the normal boot sequence.

To preserve the DMA pool in CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y kernels, we'll
allocate pagetables from above the 16MB DMA limit, so we'll have to set
up boot pagetables to cover 16MB more RAM (worst-case).
