/*
 * Declaration of variables in .data16
 *
 * To place a variable in the .data16 segment, declare it using the
 * pattern:
 *
 *   int __data16 ( foo );
 *   #define foo __use_data16 ( foo );
 *
 *   extern uint32_t __data16 ( bar );
 *   #define bar __use_data16 ( bar );
 *
 *   static long __data16 ( baz ) = 0xff000000UL;
 *   #define baz __use_data16 ( baz );
 *
 * i.e. take a normal declaration, add __data16() around the variable
 * name, and add a line saying "#define <name> __use_data16 ( <name> )
 *
 * You can then access them just like any other variable, for example
 *
 *   int x = foo + bar;
 *
 * This magic is achieved at a cost of only around 7 extra bytes per
 * group of accesses to .data16 variables.  When using KEEP_IT_REAL,
 * there is no extra cost.
 *
 * You should place variables in .data16 when they need to be accessed
 * by real-mode code.  Real-mode assembly (e.g. as created by
 * REAL_CODE()) can access these variables via the usual data segment.
 * You can therefore write something like
 *
 *   static uint16_t __data16 ( foo );
 *   #define foo __use_data16 ( foo )
 *
 *   int bar ( void ) {
 *     __asm__ __volatile__ ( REAL_CODE ( "int $0xff\n\t"
 *                                        "movw %ax, foo" )
 *                            : : );
 *     return foo;
 *   }
 *
 * Variables may also be placed in .text16 using __text16 and
 * __use_text16.  Some variables (e.g. chained interrupt vectors) fit
 * most naturally in .text16; most should be in .data16.
 *
 * If you have only a pointer to a magic symbol within .data16 or
 * .text16, rather than the symbol itself, you can attempt to extract
 * the underlying symbol name using __from_data16() or
 * __from_text16().  This is not for the faint-hearted; check the
 * assembler output to make sure that it's doing the right thing.
