Actually, that doesn't fully explain those wakeup-objs. Because you also
need to look at this:
    arch/x86/realmode/rm/video-bios.c:1:#include "../../boot/video-bios.c"
    arch/x86/realmode/rm/video-mode.c:1:#include "../../boot/video-mode.c"
    arch/x86/realmode/rm/video-vesa.c:1:#include "../../boot/video-vesa.c"
    arch/x86/realmode/rm/video-vga.c:1:#include "../../boot/video-vga.c"

And that is the _entire_ content of those files. Rather hackish, but it
apparently works.
