+ Anything extern is right out as LLVM doesn't produce correct code for
them. Maybe if I added some extra attributes but I'm skeptical.
Replaced with static variables and getters/setters.
+ Inline ASM is apparently a bit buggy, so use an assembly stub when jumping to init.
+ Minimize work done in main() to minimize chance of LLVM doing something silly.
Still not 100% certain that I shouldn't just write the main() as an assembly stub
in arch/riscv64 to be absolutely sure everything works as intended.
+ Make .kernel.start section SHF_ALLOC, otherwise lld complains about
pc-relative addressing
Probably some other stuff as well that I'm forgetting right now. But at least with
LLVM14 LTO seems to work, which is pretty cool?

+ The system is now a bit simpler and hopefully easier to understand, while also
extending the shared memory to be 1:N, where there is one owner who
may become a zombie while waiting for the N to die.

+ Start out using big kernel lock, apparently seL4 thinks its good
enough. I might have a go at using a more fair lock, and possibly
moving to more fine-grained locks if I really feel the need to get
scalability up.
