Remove the intermediate concept of a user pointer from real address
conversion, leaving real_to_virt() as the directly implemented
function.

Allow network upper-layer drivers (such as LLDP, which attaches to
each network device in order to provide a corresponding LLDP settings
block) to specify a size for private data, which will be allocated as
part of the network device structure (as with the existing private
data allocated for the underlying device driver).
This will allow network upper-layer drivers to be simplified by
omitting memory allocation and freeing code. If the upper-layer
driver requires a reference counter (e.g. for interface
initialisation), then it may use the network device's existing
reference counter, since this is now the reference counter for the
containing block of memory.

Move most arch/i386 files to arch/x86, and adjust the contents of the
Makefiles and the include/bits/*.h headers to reflect the new
locations.
This patch makes no substantive code changes, as can be seen using a
rename-aware diff (e.g. "git show -M5").
This patch does not make the pcbios platform functional for x86_64; it
merely allows it to compile without errors.
