x86/cpu/vmware: Use the full form of inl in VMWARE_PORT

LLVM's assembler doesn't accept the short form

  inl (%%dx)

instruction, but instead insists on the output register to be explicitly
specified:

  <inline asm>:1:7: error: invalid operand for instruction
          inl (%dx)
             ^
  LLVM ERROR: Error parsing inline asm

Use the full form of the instruction to fix the build.
