Well I managed to bolt it all together (you have other changes to
arch/x86/include/asm/zimage.h so one of the patches had to be applied manually)

But I cannot get the e820 map setup right for Linux - I tried to create a
single 2GB entry (I have no reserved memory, it's all free for Linux to do
what it wishes) with:

unsigned install_e820_map(unsigned max_entries, struct e820entry *entries)
{
	entries[0].addr = 0x00000000;
	entries[0].size = 0x80000000;
	entries[0].type = E820_RAM;

	return 1;
}

But Linux throws back:
