i386: work around miscompilation of alternatives code 

A recent change makes my Dell 1501 hang on boot.  It's an AMD MK-36.  I use
an x86_64 kernel.  It is 100% reproducible.

I debugged this problem a bit and my compiler[1]interprets the =A constraint
as %rax instead of %edx:%eax on x86_64 which causes the problem.  The appended
patch provides a workaround for this and fixed the hang on my machine.

[1] gcc version 4.1.3 20070429 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-5)
