[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 13/58] x86: Set up the global data pointer in C instead of asm

[Simon Glass]

We currently assume that the global data pointer is at the start of
struct global_data. We want to remove this restriction, and it is
easiest to do this in C.

Remove the asm code and add equivalent code in C.

This idea was proposed by Graeme Russ here:
