[x86 setup] Fix assembly constraints
Fix incorrect assembly constraints. In particular, fix memory
constraints used inside push..pop, which can cause invalid operation
since gcc may generate %esp-relative references.
Additionally:
outl() should have "dN" not "dn".
query_mca() shouldn't listen 16/32-bit registers in an 8-bit only
context.
has_eflag(): the "mask" is only used well after both the stack pointer
and the output registers have been touched; this requires the output
registers to be earlyclobbers (=&) and the input to exclude memory (so
"ri", not "g").
Thanks to Etienne Lorrain and Chuck Ebbert for prompting this review.
