Subject: [PATCH] x86: Fix boot protocol KEEP_SEGMENTS check.


The kernel only ever supports 1 version of the boot protocol
so there is no need to check the boot protocol revision to
see if a feature is supported.

Both x86 and x86_64 support the same boot protocol so we need
to implement the KEEP_SEGMENTS on x86_64 as well.  It isn't
just paravirt bootloaders that could use this functionality.
