Revert "[PATCH] paravirt: Add startup infrastructure for paravirtualization"

This reverts commit c9ccf30d.

Entering the kernel at startup_32 without passing our real mode data in
%esi, and without guaranteeing that physical and virtual addresses are
identity mapped makes head.S impossible to maintain.

The only user of this infrastructure is lguest which is not merged so
nothing we currently support will break by removing this over designed
nightmare, and only the pending lguest patches will be affected.  The
pending Xen patches have a different entry point that they use.

We are currently discussing what Xen and lguest need to do to boot the
kernel in a more normal fashion so using startup_32 in this weird manner is
clearly not their long term direction.

So let's remove this code in head.S before it causes brain damage to people
trying to maintain head.S
