x86/boot: Rename "real_mode" to "boot_params"
The non-compressed boot code uses the (much more obvious) name
"boot_params" for the global pointer to the x86 boot parameters. The
compressed kernel loader code, though, was using the legacy name
"real_mode". There is no need to have a different name, and changing it
improves readability.
