Subject: i386: CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START cleanup
From: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@xxxxxxxxxx>
Defining __PHYSICAL_START and __KERNEL_START in asm-i386/page.h works but it
triggers a full kernel rebuild for the silliest of reasons. This modifies the
users to directly use CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START and linux/config.h which prevents
the full rebuild problem, which makes the code much more maintainer and
hopefully user friendly.
