As written, if the if the UNDI ISR call clobbers the upper halves of
any of the GPRs (which by convention it is permitted to do, and by
paranoia should be expected to do) then nothing in the interrupt
handler will recover the state.
Additionally, save/restore %fs and %gs out of sheer paranoia - it's a
cheap enough operation, and may prevent problems due to poorly written
UNDI stacks.
Since we don't know what the UNDI code does, it is safest to
save/restore %eflags even though the lower half of %eflags is
automatically saved by the interrupt itself.

Remove the (unused) option to override _prefix_link_addr,
_textdata_link_addr, _load_addr and _max_align in the linker scripts.
A bug in some versions of ld causes segfaults if the DEFINED() macro
is used in a linker script *and* the -Map option to ld is present.
We don't currently need to override any of these values; if we need to
do so in future then the solution will probably be to always specify
the values on the ld command line, and have the linker script not
define them at all.
Ensure that empty e820 regions are skipped even at the end of the
memory map. (We achieve this by setting CF on the last entry if it is
zero-length; this avoids the need to look ahead to see at each entry
if the *next* entry would be both the last entry and zero-length).
This fixes the "0kB base memory" error message upon starting Windows
2003 on a SunFire X2100.

Redefine bzimage_exec_context::mem_limit to be the highest permissible
byte, rather than the number of permissible bytes (i.e. subtract one
from the value under the previous definition to get the value under
the new definition).
This avoids integer overflow on 64-bit kernels, where
bzhdr.initrd_addr_max may be 0xffffffffffffffff; under the old
behaviour we set mem_limit equal to initrd_addr_max+1, which meant it
ended up as zero. Kernel loads would fail with ENOBUFS.
Experimentation reveals that gcc ignores -mrtd for the implicit
arithmetic functions (e.g. __udivdi3), but not for the implicit
memcpy() and memset() functions. Mark the implicit arithmetic
functions with __attribute__((cdecl)) to compensate for this.
(Note: we cannot mark with with __cdecl, because we define __cdecl to
incorporate regparm(0) as well.)
