For arch/x86 the realmode part has to be located within the same 64
KiB as the reset vector. Some older intel platforms also require 4 KiB
alignment for _start16bit.
To enforce the above, and to separate required parts of .text without
matching *(.text.*) rules in linker scripts, tag the pre-C environment
assembly code with section .init directive.
Description of .init section for ELF:
This section holds executable instructions that contribute to the
process initialization code. When a program starts to run, the
system arranges to execute the code in this section before calling the
main program entry point (called main for C programs).
