[RFC PATCH 8/9] x86/purgatory: Simplify references to regs array

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb at kernel.org>
Use a single symbol reference and offset addressing to load the contents
of the register file from memory, instead of using a symbol reference
for each, which results in larger code and more ELF overhead. While at
it, rename the individual labels with an .L prefix so they are omitted
from the ELF symbol table.
