Mathieu Desnoyers edc953fa4e x86: clean up alternative.h
Alternative header duplicates assembly that could be merged in
one single macro.  Merging this into this macro also allows to
directly declare ALTERNATIVE() statements within assembly code.

Uses a __stringify() of the feature bits rather than passing a
"i" operand.  Leave the old %0 operand as-is (set to 0), unused
to stay compatible with API.

(v2: tab alignment fixes)

[ Impact: cleanup ]

/*
* Alternative inline assembly for SMP.
*
* The LOCK_PREFIX macro defined here replaces the LOCK and
* LOCK_PREFIX macros used everywhere in the source tree.
*
* SMP alternatives use the same data structures as the other
* alternatives and the X86_FEATURE_UP flag to indicate the case of a
* UP system running a SMP kernel. The existing apply_alternatives()
* works fine for patching a SMP kernel for UP.
*
* The SMP alternative tables can be kept after boot and contain both
* UP and SMP versions of the instructions to allow switching back to
* SMP at runtime, when hotplugging in a new CPU, which is especially
* useful in virtualized environments.
*
* The very common lock prefix is handled as special case in a
* separate table which is a pure address list without replacement ptr
* and size information. That keeps the table sizes small.
