[prefix] Move flatten_real_mode to .text16.early
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The flatten_real_mode routine is not needed until after decompressing
.text16.early, and currently performs various contortions to
compensate for the fact that .prefix may not be writable.  Move
flatten_real_mode to .text16.early to save on (compressed) binary size
and simplify the code.
