This series fixes an issue where the outcome of the migration qtest
relies on the initial memory contents all being the same across the
first 100MiB of RAM, which is a very fragile invariant.
 
We fix this by making sure we zero the first byte of every testable page
in range beforehand.

Changes since v1:
- Add a fix for the s390x test binary as well as suggested by Peter Xu

Daniil Tatianin (3):
  i386/a-b-bootblock: factor test memory addresses out into constants
  i386/a-b-bootblock: zero the first byte of each page on start
  s390x/a-b-bios: zero the first byte of each page on start
