Much of the early-init assembler on x86 can be removed if we use the new board_init_f_mem() function. At present only PowerPC uses it, but we should try to move more archs over.
This has been contemplated for a while but it is time to take the plunge.
Simon Glass (5): x86: Remove init_gd() function Align global_data to a 16-byte boundary Allow arch-specific setting of global_data in board_init_f_mem() x86: Move the GDT into global_data x86: Switch to using generic global_data setup
