[PATCH] fix kexec asm

[Chris Mason <mason@suse.com>]

From: Michael Matz <matz@suse.de>

While testing kexec and kdump we hit problems where the new kernel would
freeze or instantly reboot.  The easiest way to trigger it was to kexec a
kernel compiled for CONFIG_M586 on an athlon cpu.  Compiling
for CONFIG_MK7 instead would work fine.

The patch below fixes a few problems with the kexec inline asm.
