Move global variable check to Makefile

Our linker script for romstage checks for global variables and
    makes the build fail if there are any (on non-AMD systems).
    This is great, but having the build fail without any indication
    which variables are global is not very useful.

Moving the check to the Makefile allows us to let the linking stage
    succeed and reveil which variable names end up in the data and bss
    sections of the binary.

To test, add "int foo;" as the first line in src/mainboard/samsung/lumpy/romstage.c
    and build coreboot for Lumpy. See the build break the following
    way:

LINK       cbfs/fallback/romstage_null.debug
        Forbidden global variables in romstage:
        00006a84 B foo
