x86/fpu: Fix AMD X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK fixup



The assembly snippet in restore_fpregs_from_fpstate() that implements
X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK fixup loads the value from a random variable,
preferably the one that is already in the L1 cache.

However, the access to fpinit_state via *fpstate pointer is not
implemented correctly. The "m" asm constraint requires dereferenced
pointer variable, otherwise the compiler just reloads the value
via temporary stack slot. The current asm code reflects this:

     mov    %rdi,(%rsp)
     ...
     fildl  (%rsp)

With dereferenced pointer variable, the code does what the
comment above the asm snippet says:

     fildl  (%rdi)

Also, remove the pointless %P operand modifier. The modifier is
ineffective on non-symbolic references - it was used to prevent
%rip-relative addresses in .altinstr sections, but FILDL in the
.text section can use %rip-relative addresses without problems.
