commit 98b0bf02738004829d7e26d6cb47b2e469aaba86 upstream.

If debug_regs.c is built with newer binutils, the resulting binary is "optimized"
by the assembler:

asm volatile("ss_start: "
             "xor %%rax,%%rax\n\t"
             "cpuid\n\t"
             "movl $0x1a0,%%ecx\n\t"
             "rdmsr\n\t"
             : : : "rax", "ecx");

is translated to :

  000000000040194e <ss_start>:
  40194e:       31 c0                   xor    %eax,%eax     <----- rax->eax?
  401950:       0f a2                   cpuid
  401952:       b9 a0 01 00 00          mov    $0x1a0,%ecx
  401957:       0f 32                   rdmsr

As you can see rax is replaced with eax in target binary code.
This causes a difference is the length of xor instruction (2 Byte vs 3 Byte),
and makes the hard-coded instruction length check fail:

        /* Instruction lengths starting at ss_start */
        int ss_size[4] = {
                3,              /* xor */   <-------- 2 or 3?
                2,              /* cpuid */
                5,              /* mov */
                2,              /* rdmsr */
        };

Encode the shorter version directly and, while at it, fix the "clobbers"
of the asm.
