Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot/compressed/64: Define __force_order only when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is unset

kaslr_64.c also defines the same variable, however when both files are
included into final link, linker complains about multiple definition of
`__force_order' which is coming from kaslr_64.o and pgtable_64.o, its
possible that kaslr_64.o is disabled via CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE config
option, therefore define it conditionally only when
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is not set

Since arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile overrides global CFLAGS it loses
-fno-common option which would have caught this
