From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>
Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2018 08:25:28 +0100
Subject: x86/boot: Mostly revert commit ae7e1238e68f2a ("Add ACPI RSDP address
to setup_header")
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/3841840449817ba6cf3e636008bc4e1061a03388
Peter Anvin pointed out that commit:
ae7e1238e68f2a ("x86/boot: Add ACPI RSDP address to setup_header")
should be reverted as setup_header should only contain items set by the
legacy BIOS.
So revert said commit. Instead of fully reverting the dependent commit
of:
e7b66d16fe4172 ("x86/acpi, x86/boot: Take RSDP address for boot params if available")
just remove the setup_header reference in order to replace it by
a boot_params in a followup patch.
