[PATCH] fix load of RHEL ans SUSE images by correctly calculate ELF entry point |

This Patch loads kernel LOAD segment at the address fixed by PhysAddr
with alignment Align at the ELF program header. Even if this address is
in use other address with the same alignment is found "linuxadr" (since
linux can relocate itself). The linux main function is then find in the
adress linuxaddr + entry + (PhysAddr- Entry), where Entry is the Entry
point address in the ELF header. (PhysAddr- Entry) gives the offset
where the linux entry point is located after linuxaddr.
