[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] multiboot: Don't forget last mmap entry

[Kevin Wolf]

When the BIOS returns ebx = 0, the current entry is still valid and
needs to be included in the Multiboot memory map.

Fixing this meant that using bx as the entry index doesn't work any
more because it's 0 on the last entry (and it was SeaBIOS-specific
anyway), so the whole loop had to change a bit and should be more
generic as a result (ebx can be an arbitrary continuation number now,
and the entry size returned by the BIOS is used instead of hard-coding
20 bytes).
