x86/boot: Simplify kernel load address alignment check
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1790620 commit a4733143 upstream We are using %rax as temporary register to check the kernel address alignment. We don't really have to since the TEST instruction does not clobber the destination operand.
