Subject: [PATCH 2/6] seabios: do not give back high ram
Oracle 6 and 7 series virtual machines will use the high ram returned by
sebios. Since these high ram will not be initialized before kernel used,
this will cause a system exception. This patch removes the logic for
returning high ram, making the virtual machine will not use this part
of the memory, thus avoiding this kernel bug.
