Since kernel commit e6e094e053af75 ("x86/acpi, x86/boot: Take RSDP address
from boot params if available"), kernel accept an acpi_rsdp_addr param in
boot_params. So fill in this parameter unconditionally, ensure second
kernel always get the right RSDP address consistently, and boot well on
EFI system even with EFI service disabled. User no longer need to change
the kernel cmdline to workaround the missing RSDP issue.
For older version of kernels (Before 5.0), there won't be any change of
behavior.
