Let's wait. The current hack does exactly what Linux needs, which 
is to load the ramdisk at the load address of the ramdisk image. 

This patch enables loading but on some occasion, the ramdisk can be 
loaded in conflicting memblocks for Linux, which then disables 
INITRD ... So we need to do better than that.
