svn commit: r190817 - head/sys/amd64/include

New Revision: 190817
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/190817

Log:
  Don't explicitly force ecx to be used for MSR_FSBASE/MSR_GSBASE.
  
  Because the "c" input constaint is used, the compiler will already place
  the MSR_FSBASE/MSR_GSBASE constants in ecx. Using __asm("ecx") makes
  LLVM crash. Even though this is also an LLVM bug, we'd better remove the
  unnecessary GCCism as well.
