   # HEAD: 5214028dd89e49ba27007c3ee475279e584261f0 x86/boot: Correct relocation destination on old linkers

Misc updates:

 - Add the initrdmem= boot option to specify an initrd embedded in RAM (flash most likely)
 - Sanitize the CS value earlier during boot, which also fixes SEV-ES.
 - Various fixes and smaller cleanups.
