FROMLIST: arm64: fix alternatives with LLVM's integrated assembler
LLVM's integrated assembler fails with the following error when
building KVM:
<inline asm>:12:6: error: expected absolute expression
.if kvm_update_va_mask == 0
^
<inline asm>:21:6: error: expected absolute expression
.if kvm_update_va_mask == 0
^
<inline asm>:24:2: error: unrecognized instruction mnemonic
NOT_AN_INSTRUCTION
^
LLVM ERROR: Error parsing inline asm
These errors come from ALTERNATIVE_CB and __ALTERNATIVE_CFG,
which test for the existence of the callback parameter in inline
assembly using the following expression:
" .if " __stringify(cb) " == 0\n"
This works with GNU as, but isn't supported by LLVM. This change
splits __ALTERNATIVE_CFG and ALTINSTR_ENTRY into separate macros
to fix the LLVM build.
