Nick Desaulniers c071b0f11e x86: bitops: fix build regression
This is easily reproducible via CC=clang + CONFIG_STAGING=y +
CONFIG_VT6656=m.

It turns out that if your config tickles __builtin_constant_p via
differences in choices to inline or not, these statements produce
invalid assembly:

    $ cat foo.c
    long a(long b, long c) {
      asm("orb	%1, %0" : "+q"(c): "r"(b));
      return c;
    }
    $ gcc foo.c
    foo.c: Assembler messages:
    foo.c:2: Error: `%rax' not allowed with `orb'

Use the `%b` "x86 Operand Modifier" to instead force register allocation
to select a lower-8-bit GPR operand.

The "q" constraint only has meaning on -m32 otherwise is treated as
"r".  Not all GPRs have low-8-bit aliases for -m32.
