    x86/boot: Remove the mbi_p parameter from __start_xen()
    
    The use of physical addresses in __start_xen() has proved to be fertile 
soure
    of bugs.
    
    The MB1/2 path stashes the MBI pointer in multiboot_ptr (a setup.c variable
    even), then re-loads it immediately before calling __start_xen().  For this,
    we can just drop the function parameter and read multiboot_ptr in the one
    place where it's used.
    
    The EFI path also passes this parameter into __start_xen().  Have the EFI 
path
    set up multiboot_ptr too, and move the explanation of phyiscal-mode 
pointers.
    
    No functional change.
