[PATCH] x86_64: Fix 64bit FXSAVE encoding
The separation of the rex64 prefix (on fxsave/fxrstor) by way of using a semicolon resulted in the prefix not always taking effect (because when extended registers are needed for addressing, another rex prefix would have been generated by the compiler), thus (depending on the build) resulting in eventually getting 32-bit saves and/or restores.
