    boot - Put loader heap in high memory
    
    * We ran out of low BIOS memory.  The initrd.img.gz unpacking requires a
      bit more than ~32KB of temporary space and it ran the loader out of
      low-BIOS heap memory.
    
      This can cause the loader to fail to load the image and prevent proper
      crypto or single-user bootstrapping.
    
    * Steal the heap from high-memory, just ender the kernel+modules load area
      limit.  For now, steal 1MB, which gives the loader plenty of space again.
      The kernel will lose 1MB of physical memory, boo-hoo.
    
    * The loader must remove the heap from the SMAP passed to the kernel.
    
    * Move any objects requiring VTOPSEG/VTOPOFF out of malloc and into a
      static or stack declaration.
