[PATCH v5 01/13] x86, boot: move verify_cpu.S after 0x200

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Wed Nov 28 2012 - 02:52:22 EST


We are short of space before 0x200 that is entry for startup_64.

According to hpa, we can not change startup_64 to other offset and
that become ABI now.

We could move function verify_cpu down, and that could avoid extra
code of jmp back and forth if we would move other lines.
