Make libpayload alloc() memory pointers volatile 

gcc4.6.2 was optimizing the libpayload alloc() function and failing to
reload a pointer after the memory had been manipulated by a pointer in
the inlined function setup(). Change the pointer type to volatile
and now pass it to the setup() function. Also clean up the
declaration so that it isn't cast a bunch times in the function.
