[PATCH 01/14] x86, boot: align the .bss section in the decompressor

[H. Peter Anvin]

From: H. Peter Anvin <hpa at zytor.com>

Aligning the .bss section makes it trivially faster, and makes using
larger transfers for the clear slightly easier.

[ Impact: trivial performance enhancement, future patch prep ]
