x86, vmlinux.lds: unify .text output sections
32 bit x86 had a dedicated .text.head output section, whereas 64 bit had it all in a single output section. In the unified version the dedicated .text.head output section was kept to have full control over the head code. 32 bit: - Moved definition of _stext to the linker script. The definition is located _after_ .text.page_aligned as this is what 32 bit did before. The ALIGN(8) was introduced so we hit the exact same address (on the tested config) before and after the move. I assume that it is a bug that _stext did not cover the .text.page_aligned section - if this is true it can be fixed in a follow-up patch (and the ugly ALIGN() can be dropped).
