Hrm... could we call it something other than head.S?
For me, "head" kind of implies that it's actually at the head/bottom
of the kernel binary, and should therefore only contain things which
require a fixed offset address. And the whole point here is that
you're removing things that don't in fact have such constraints.
Perhaps exceptions.S, or os_entry.S?
