x86-64: Use RIP-relative addressing for most per-CPU accesses

Observing that per-CPU data (in the SMP case) is reachable by
exploiting 64-bit address wraparound (building on the default kernel
load address being at 16Mb), the one byte shorter RIP-relative
addressing form can be used for most per-CPU accesses. The one
exception are the "stable" reads, where the use of the "P" operand
modifier prevents the compiler from using RIP-relative addressing, but
is unavoidable due to the use of the "p" constraint (side note: with
gcc 4.9.x the intended effect of this isn't being achieved anymore,
see gcc bug 63637).

With the dependency on the minimum kernel load address, arbitrarily
low values for CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START are now no longer possible. A
link time assertion is being added, directing to the need to increase
that value when it triggers.
