This could do with a /* Transitionary only */ comment.  In this patch
it's not too bad, but it does get worse as new fields are added, before
being removed.

I'd also drop the "early_" part.  I know it's the initial_images array
we're converting, but "early_" doesn't convey any extra meaning, and it
makes a number of lines get quite hairy.

struct boot_module modules[MAX_NR_BOOTMODS + 1];

Probably at the end of the structure.  In turn it ...

... drops this static.

The comment is good, but note how this is just one extra iteration of
the loop, (so use <= for the bound).
