x86/csum: Relax the len and proto constraints in 32-bit csum_ipv6_magic()

Building an i386 allmodconfig kernel with clang fails since allmodconfig
started building netfilter with GCOV profiling:

  In file included from net/netfilter/nf_synproxy_core.c:7:
  In file included from ./include/linux/skbuff.h:26:
  In file included from ./include/net/checksum.h:21:
  In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/checksum.h:9:
  ./arch/x86/include/asm/checksum_32.h:149:6: error: inline assembly requires more registers than available

The csum_ipv6_magic() asm needs five registers at once: the early-clobber sum
plus register-only inputs for saddr, daddr, htonl(len) and htonl(proto). With
frame pointers enabled, six general purpose registers are left to choose from.

In synproxy_send_tcp_ipv6(), the GCOV instrumentation lets clang's machine
scheduler move the copies of two incoming register arguments, EDX and ECX,
below the asm.

Both registers then stay live across the asm, which leaves four registers for
its five operands. This is LLVM issue #206307. The error goes away without
either GCOV or frame pointers, and it reproduces with clang 19-22.

Neither len nor proto has to be in a register: ADCL also takes a 32-bit memory
or immediate source operand. Use "g" for both, so the asm needs at most three
registers whatever the caller looks like.

ASM_INPUT_G, which normally replaces "g" to avoid clang's poor handling of it,
is not enough here. It expands to "ir" for clang, so callers that pass
a variable protocol, like nf_ip6_checksum(), would still need five registers.
With "g", clang passes a non-constant len or proto through the stack and still
turns constants into immediates.

  [ bp: Make Rosen Penev the author because of a previous identical submission
    https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260904000833.2058186-1-rosenp@gmail.com/ and
    Sasha graciously agreeing and giving his much more detailed commit message
    explaining the background of why this exists. ]
