x86: Fix boot protocol KEEP_SEGMENTS check.
The kernel only ever supports 1 version of the boot protocol so there is no need to check the boot protocol revision to see if a feature is supported. Both x86 and x86_64 support the same boot protocol so we need to implement the KEEP_SEGMENTS on x86_64 as well. It isn't just paravirt bootloaders that could use this functionality.
