In theory we could make the early stuff independent of the initramfs
code in the kernel -- just like we always build in an initramfs.

Not that it matters much, at this point the no-initramfs configurations
are mostly theoretical.

I was able to shave a bit more off the code... optimizing for size can
be fun sometimes. The code is now 442 bytes on x86-64 and 413 on i386
when compiled with -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer; with -Os
-fomit-frame-pointer it is 372/410... all of that without any library
calls or relocations of any kind (which means it should be safe to call
from the prepaging environment.)
