    x86/boot: re-order .init.data contributions
    
    Putting a few bytes ahead of page tables isn't very efficient; there's
    a gap almost worth a full page. To avoid re-ordering of items in the
    source file, simply put the few small items in sub-section 1, for them
    to end up after the page tables, followed (in the final binary) by non-
    page-aligned items from other CUs.
