Eric and Hugh have reported instant reboot due to my recent changes in
decompression code.
The root cause is that I didn't realize that we need to adjust GOT to be
able to run C code that early.
The problem is only visible with an older toolchain. Binutils >= 2.24 is
able to eliminate GOT references by replacing them with RIP-relative
address loads:

We need to adjust GOT two times:
- before calling paging_prepare() using the initial load address
- before calling C code from the relocated kernel
