x86/asm: Remove %P operand modifier from altinstr asm templates
The "P" asm operand modifier is a x86 target-specific modifier. For x86_64, when used with a symbol reference, the "%P" modifier emits "sym" instead of "sym(%rip)". This property is currently used to prevent %RIP-relative addressing in .altinstr sections. %RIP-relative addresses are nowadays correctly handled in .altinstr sections, so remove %P operand modifier from altinstr asm templates. Also note that unlike GCC, clang emits %rip-relative symbol reference with "P" asm operand modifier, so the patch also unifies symbol handling with both compilers. No functional changes intended.
