Description

Pass the physical address of the bootinfo block to the kernel in
register r8. We continue to write the bootinfo block at the same
hardwired address, because the kernel still expects it there.
It is expected that future kernels use register r8 to get to the
bootinfo block and don't depend on the hardwired address anymore.

Bump the loader version once again due to the interface change.
