Previously, this code was being confused by the re-use/overloading of
existing keywords in the ifcpu64.c module and not producing any menu
entries. Now, explicitly parse the new options and pick out just the
64-bit menus as they're a strict superset of the menus in isolinux.
This may enable some more issues, e.g. people trying to load a 64-bit
kernel on a 32-bit system, but until we get some auto-detection of CPU
in grub there's not much we can do about that. Let's get *something*
working at least.
Currently the ins loader (mostly HMC loading into an LPAR) only
supports kernels up to 8 MiB. The jessie kernel has 11 MiB, which
does not fit and hence gets its tail overwritten by the initrd
(root.bin) loaded at this address. This change bumps the load
address to 16 MiB, which should allow for some more growth of
the kernel.

Even if they won't boot directly from CD/DVD, make it easy for people
using our images by giving them all the bits they'll need to get them
booting somehow.
When we've got multiple copies of the same initramfs hard-linked
together, gzip gets unhappy when we start modifying things
later. Explicitly break the links to fix that.
