From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com>
commit 7846f58fba964af7cb8cf77d4d13c33254725211 upstream.
commit a90118c445cc ("x86/boot: Save fields explicitly, zero out everything else") had two errors:
* It preserved boot_params.acpi_rsdp_addr, and * It failed to preserve boot_params.hdr
Therefore, zero out acpi_rsdp_addr, and preserve hdr.
