In checkin: 0c44c2d0 x86: Use asm goto to implement better modify_and_test() functions the various functions which do modify and test were unified and optimized using "asm goto". However, this change missed the detail that the bitops require an "Ir" constraint rather than an "er" constraint ("I" = integer constant from 0-31, "e" = signed 32-bit integer constant). This would cause code to miscompile if these functions were used on constant bit positions 32-255 and the build to fail if used on constant bit positions above 255. Add the constraints as a parameter to the GEN_BINARY_RMWcc() macro to avoid this problem. Reported-by: NJesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NH.

Linus suggested using asm goto to get rid of the typical SETcc + TEST instruction pair -- which also clobbers an extra register -- for our typical modify_and_test() functions. Because asm goto doesn't allow output fields it has to include an unconditinal memory clobber when it changes a memory variable to force a reload. Luckily all atomic ops already imply a compiler barrier to go along with their memory barrier semantics.
