Trivial Change (E820map) : arch/i386/boot/setup.S

[Romit Dasgupta <romit@myrealbox.com>]

Hi,
      After reading the e820 method from Ralf Brown's interrupt list(
http://www.ctyme.com/intr/rb-1741.htm)
it seems that the es register wont get thrashed. So there is no need to 
repatedly execute (for getting each map entry) the following two lines 
inside jmpe820: of seutp.S and thus can be moved out as below.  Is there 
any reason to do it inside?


        pushw   %ds
        popw    %es

jmpe820:
        movl    $0x0000e820, %eax               # e820, upper word zeroed
        movl    $SMAP, %edx                     # ascii 'SMAP'
        movl    $20, %ecx                       # size of the e820rec
#       pushw   %ds                             # data record.
#       popw    %es
