    x86/boot: Drop explicit %fs uses
    
    The trampoline relocation code uses %fs for accessing Xen, and this comes 
with
    an arbitrary 16M limitation.  We could adjust the limit, but the boot code 
is
    a confusing mix of %ds/%esi-based and %fs-based accesses, and the use of %fs
    is longer to encode, and incurs an address generation overhead.
    
    Rewrite the logic to use %ds, for better consistency with the surrounding
    code, and a marginal performance improvement.
