This is very early in the boot and the boot parameters have not been
copied to boot_params yet, so I need the pointer.  And since the routines
in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c also use boot_params, those would have to be
modified to accept a pointer rather than automatically using boot_params.
I'm not sure it's worth all that.

Thanks,
