[PATCH] i386: Convert more absolute symbols to section relative

o Convert more absolute symbols to section relative to keep the theme in
  vmlinux.lds.S file and to avoid problem if kernel is relocated.

o Also put a message so that in future people can be aware of it and
  avoid introducing absolute symbols.
