Subject: [PATCH v5 1/5] x86: add cc clobber for addl

addl clobbers flags (such as CF) but barrier.h didn't tell this to gcc.
Historically, gcc doesn't need one on x86, and always considers flags
clobbered. We are probably missing the cc clobber in a *lot* of places
for this reason.

But even if not necessary, it's probably a good thing to add for
documentation, and in case gcc semantcs ever change.
