x86/asm: Cleanup prefetch primitives

This is based on a patch originally by hpa.

With the current improvements to the alternatives, we can simply use %P1
as a mem8 operand constraint and rely on the toolchain to generate the
proper instruction sizes. For example, on 32-bit, where we use an empty
old instruction we get:

  apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c104648b, len: 4), repl: (c195566c, len: 4)
  c104648b: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90
  c195566c: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 4b 5c

  ...

  apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c18e09b4, len: 3), repl: (c1955948, len: 3)
  c18e09b4: alt_insn: 90 90 90
  c1955948: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 08

  ...

  apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c1190cf9, len: 7), repl: (c1955a79, len: 7)
  c1190cf9: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90 90 90 90
  c1955a79: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 0d a0 d4 85 c1

all with the proper padding done depending on the size of the
replacement instruction the compiler generates.
