I would suggest a more explicit name, like physical_entry_addr or so. That'd
make it easier to understand without the context of your mail and changelog
entry.

I wonder if it'd make sense to do this in grub_malloc(). This would save us
from similar bugs in the future (and have the advantage that memory handling
bugs would be exposed earlier). What do you think, is this idea too crazy? :-)
(I would still add grub_memset here for now, though; makes no sense to delay
it)
