David Woodhouse 5fbbc25a99 x86, boot: Fix word-size assumptions in has_eflag() inline asm
Commit dd78b97367bd575918204cc89107c1479d3fc1a7 ("x86, boot: Move CPU
flags out of cpucheck") introduced ambiguous inline asm in the
has_eflag() function. In 16-bit mode want the instruction to be
'pushfl', but we just say 'pushf' and hope the compiler does what we
wanted.

When building with 'clang -m16', it won't, because clang doesn't use
the horrid '.code16gcc' hack that even 'gcc -m16' uses internally.

Say what we mean and don't make the compiler make assumptions.

[ hpa: ideally we would be able to use the gcc %zN construct here, but
  that is broken for 64-bit integers in gcc < 4.5.

  The code with plain "pushf/popf" is fine for 32- or 64-bit mode, but
  not for 16-bit mode; in 16-bit mode those are 16-bit instructions in
  .code16 mode, and 32-bit instructions in .code16gcc mode. ]
