[PATCH] Generic BUG for x86-64
This makes x86-64 use the generic BUG machinery.
The main advantage in using the generic BUG machinery for x86-64 is that
the inlined overhead of BUG is just the ud2a instruction; the file+line
information are no longer inlined into the instruction stream. This
reduces cache pollution.
