E820 BIOS function might overwrite kernel code #22

Right now, memory map is being copied to a fixed buffer of 240 bytes, but we don't know beforehand how many entries E820 will copy to buffer, and it can overwrite kernel code.

Still, I think it's safe to assume there won't be more than 10 entries, so this issue has very low priority.
