First of all `store_cursor_position` initializes two variables which have type `biosregs` with `AH = 0x3`, and calls `0x10` BIOS interruption. After the interruption is successfully executed, it returns row and column in the `DL` and `DH` registers. Row and column will be stored in the `orig_x` and `orig_y` fields from the the `boot_params.screen_info` structure.
