   A20 desperation mode

   There was once a situation, using Rufus I think,   
   where the A20 line wasn't being enabled by any   
   of the techniques.   
      
   It occurs to me that in that situation I can have   
   a "desperation mode" where I instead set up   
   1 MiB regions of free memory, which should   
   satisfy quite a lot of applications.   
      
   So 1-2 MiB would be skipped. 3-4 MiB would   
   be skipped. etc.
