    x86: Update the check for Forbidden global variables
    
    Add a section .illegal_globals to romstage and check that the section does not
    contain any variables while creating romstage.
    
    [pg: Handle individual AGESA special cases in the
    linker script instead of whitelisting everything
    remotely AGESA related in the Makefile.]
