x86: bitops asm constraint fixes

This (simplified) piece of code didn't behave as expected due to
incorrect constraints in some of the bitops functions, when
X86_FEATURE_xxx is referring to other than the first long:

int test(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c) {
	if (cpu_has(c, X86_FEATURE_xxx))
		clear_cpu_cap(c, X86_FEATURE_xxx);
	return cpu_has(c, X86_FEATURE_xxx);
}

I'd really like understand, though, what the policy of (not) having a
"memory" clobber in these operations is - currently, this appears to
be totally inconsistent. Also, many comments of the non-atomic
functions say those may also be re-ordered - this contradicts the use
of "asm volatile" in there, which again I'd like to understand.

As much as all of these, using 'int' for the 'nr' parameter and
'void *' for the 'addr' one is in conflict with
Documentation/atomic_ops.txt, especially because bt{,c,r,s} indeed
take the bit index as signed (which hence would really need special
precaution) and access the full 32 bits (if 'unsigned long' was used
properly here, 64 bits for x86-64) pointed at, so invalid uses like
referencing a 'char' array cannot currently be caught.

Finally, the code with and without this patch relies heavily on the
-fno-strict-aliasing compiler switch and I'm not certain this really
is a good idea.

In the light of all of this I'm sending this as RFC, as fixing the
above might warrant a much bigger patch...
