    x86 setup: correct booting on 486DX4
    
    Apparently, the 486DX4 does not correctly serialize a mov to %cr0, so
    we really do need the far jump immediately afterwards.  This means
    losing the nice separation between 16- and 32-bit code, but c'est la
    vie.
    
    Also pass %ebx = %edi = %ebp = 0 to support future extension of the
    32-bit boot protocol.
