Subject: [PATCH 6/11] i386: CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START cleanup



Defining __PHYSICAL_START and __KERNEL_START in asm-i386/page.h works but
it triggers a full kernel rebuild for the silliest of reasons.  This
modifies the users to directly use CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START and linux/config.h
which prevents the full rebuild problem, which makes the code much
more maintainer and hopefully user friendly.
