x86: msr: fix bogus return values from rdmsr_safe/wrmsr_safe
Impact: bogus error codes (+other?) on x86-64
The rdmsr_safe/wrmsr_safe routines have macros for the handling of the
edx:eax arguments. Those macros take a variable number of assembly
arguments. This is rather inherently incompatible with using
%digit-style escapes in the inline assembly; replace those with
%[name]-style escapes.
This fixes miscompilation on x86-64, which at the very least caused
bogus return values. It is possible that this could also corrupt the
return value; I am not sure.
