[PATCH v7 02/22] x86/head_64: Store boot_params pointer in callee save register

[Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>]

Instead of pushing/popping %RSI to/from the stack every time a function
is called from startup_64(), store it in a callee preserved register
and grab it from there when its value is actually needed.
