Subject[PATCH v5 01/21] x86, KASLR: Remove unneeded boot_params argument
Date
From: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>

Since the boot_params can be found using the real_mode global variable,
there is no need to pass around a pointer to it. This slightly simplifies
the choose_kernel_location function and its callers.
