linux.c32: fix initrd alignment

Impact: fix boot failure on Dell E6500 and possibly other platforms

Linux may not be able to access a part of an initrd which resides in a
page that is part RAM, part non-RAM.  Make sure we round the end of
the memory range we want to use down to a page boundary (as well as
round the start up.)
