[PATCH] vmx: Fix register constraint in launch code



Both "=r" and "=g" breaks my build on i386:

  $ make
    CC [M]  drivers/kvm/vmx.o
  {standard input}: Assembler messages:
  {standard input}:3318: Error: bad register name `%sil'
  make[1]: *** [drivers/kvm/vmx.o] Error 1
  make: *** [_module_drivers/kvm] Error 2

The reason is that setbe requires an 8-bit register but "=r" does not
constrain the target register to be one that has an 8-bit version on
i386.

According to

	http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10153

the correct constraint is "=q".
