This patch splits realmode and loader routines out of startup.S. The idea
is that the LinuxBIOS port can be adapted to share more code with the rest
of GRUB instead of duplicating it.
This is quite critical stuff, so even if the change seems trivial I'd suggest
being careful, since I don't trust myself too much. Of course, I've tested
that it can still boot Linux and Multiboot (on qemu only). Perhaps testing
on real hardware would be appropiate (but I don't have this handy atm).
