[RFC PATCH v2 01/18] x86/asm/head: clean up initial stack variable

The stack_start variable is similar in usage to initial_code and
initial_gs: they're all stored in head_64.S and they're all updated by
SMP and suspend/resume before starting a CPU.

Rename stack_start to initial_stack to be more consistent with the
others.

Also do a few other related cleanups:

- Remove the unused init_rsp variable declaration.

- Remove the ".word 0" statement after the initial_stack definition
  because it has no apparent function.
