   coreboot-v3/arch/x86/amd/stage0.S
   coreboot-v3/arch/x86/geodelx/stage0.S

   coreboot-v3/arch/x86/stage1.c
   coreboot-v3/include/console.h
Log:
Move stage1 global variable management from asm to C. The stage0 asm
code now unconditionally pushes an empty pointer to the stack which is a
placeholder for the pointer to global variable storage. That pointer and
the global variable storage are initialized in global_vars_init().

Creating global variables is now a piece of cake. You don't even have to
touch any asm code, just add them to struct global_vars.

Build tested on all targets, boot tested on Qemu.

NOTES:
- The code is not yet MP safe, but that's due to v3 not being MP safe in
general (and the comments contradict the code regarding MP features).
- K8 code now works by accident.
