x86/alternatives: Fix int3_emulate_call() selftest stack corruption



KASAN shows the following splat during boot:

  BUG: KASAN: unknown-crash in unwind_next_frame+0x3f6/0x490
  Read of size 8 at addr ffffffff84007db0 by task swapper/0

  Memory state around the buggy address:
   ffffffff84007c80: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 f1 f1 f1
   ffffffff84007d00: f1 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 f2 f2 f2 f3 f3 f3
  >ffffffff84007d80: f3 79 be 52 49 79 be 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 f1

It turns out that int3_selftest() is corrupting the stack.  The problem is
that the KASAN-ified version of int3_magic() is much less trivial than the
C code appears.  It clobbers several unexpected registers.  So when the
selftest's INT3 is converted to an emulated call to int3_magic(), the
registers are clobbered and Bad Things happen when the function returns.

Fix this by converting int3_magic() to the trivial ASM function it should
be, avoiding all calling convention issues. Also add ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT to
the INT3 ASM, since it contains a 'CALL'.
