x86: introduce __ASM_REG macro.
There are situations in which the architecture wants to use the register that represents its word-size, whatever it is. For those, introduce __ASM_REG in asm.h, along with the first users _ASM_AX and _ASM_DX. They have users waiting for it, namely the getuser functions.
