The asm to read and write EFLAGS from userspace is horrible. The
compiler builtins are now available on all supported compilers, so
use them instead.
(The compiler builtins are also unnecessarily ugly, but that's a
more manageable level of ugliness.)

There are several copies of get_eflags() and set_eflags() and they all are
buggy. Consolidate them and fix them. The fixes are:
Add memory clobbers. These are probably unnecessary but they make sure
that the compiler doesn't move something past one of these calls when it
shouldn't.
Respect the redzone on x86_64. There has no failure been observed related
to this, but it's definitely a bug.
