The RSDP is needed by KASLR so parse it early and save it in
boot_params.acpi_rsdp_addr, before KASLR setup runs.
RSDP is needed by other kernel facilities so have the parsing code
built-in instead of a long "depends on" line in Kconfig.
[ bp:
- Trim commit message and comments
- Add CONFIG_ACPI dependency in the Makefile
- Move ->acpi_rsdp_addr assignment with the rest of boot_params massaging in extract_kernel().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
