[PATCH] x86: introduce kernel/head32.c

From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Sat Feb 23 2008 - 03:58:20 EST


Copy x86_64 and add a head32.c so we can start moving early
architecture initialization out of assembly.

Based on original submission from Eric:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/30/337

I just updated it to x86
Only build tested on 64bit x86 but looks trivially correct.
