x86/purgatory: Omit use of bin2c
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The .incbin assembler directive is much faster than bin2c + $(CC).

Do similar refactoring as in

  4c0f032 ("s390/purgatory: Omit use of bin2c").

Please note the .quad directive matches to size_t in C (both 8
byte) because the purgatory is compiled only for the 64-bit kernel.
(KEXEC_FILE depends on X86_64).
