Subject: [PATCH 2.6.23..2.6.24] Backport r and q constraints fixes

Upstream commit: 811a0fff5d6e80e18e06be88e0fb685f3924bf8f

This patch included on 2.6.25 is required to be backported to compile
both the 2.6.23 and 2.6.24 kernels on x86_64 systems with a modern
toolchain. Otherwise you get this pesky assembly error:

arch/i386/boot/boot.h: Assembler messages:
arch/i386/boot/boot.h:112: Error: bad register name `%dil'

	Author: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@...or.com>
	Date:   Wed Jan 30 13:33:02 2008 +0100

	    x86 setup: fix constraints in segment accessor functions
	    
	    Fix the operand constraints for the segment accessor functions,
	    {rd,wr}{fs,gs}*.  In particular, the 8-bit functions used "r"
	    constraints instead of "q" constraints.

This patch is not likely to be applied upstream as 2.6.23.y and 2.6.24.y
are both dead now. Use at least the latest 2.6.27.y as that is the latest
supported kernel. I put this out there though in case someone also is looking
for a solution and does not have an option to upgrade. May the google cache
be with you.
