  To: Linus Torvalds; +Cc: linux-kernel


Linus, please apply.

This patch corrects the vmlinux so it correctly reports the physical
load address of the kernel at 1MB, and the actual kernel entry point.
This is done with a small change to the linker script and removal of
the incorrect command line linker entry point specification.

Eric
