Thread-topic: [PATCH] Cleanup x86_64 boot code

This patch removes unnecessary .org directives from x84_64.S (xen/arch/x86/boot/x86_64.S).  Most of these directives already had labels associated with them but the code did not use the labels to reference the locations.  This patch now fixes the code to use the labels instead of the absolute addresses.  This makes the code much less brittle to changes.
