x86: Place global data below stack before entering C
By reserving space for the Global Data immediately below the stack during assembly level initialisation, the C declaration of the static global data can be removed, along with the 'RAM Bootstrap' function. This results in cleaner code, and the ability to pass boot-up flags from assembler into C
