[PATCH v4 1/6] kexec, x86: clean boot_params area for entry-32bit path

[Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>]

kexec bzImage path setup data is shared with real-mode path, and
setup_header is copied together with setup_code.
Later 32bit just use whole area as boot_params for real_mode_data.
but those area for boot_params around setup_header is
not cleaned that will leave some field in boot_param as
non-zero value.

So clean around setup_header area for non real-mode entry path.
