x86-32: Avoid pipeline serialization in PTREGSCALL1 and 2
In the PTREGSCALL1 and 2 macros, we can trivially avoid an unnecessary
pipeline serialization, so do so.
In PTREGSCALLS3 this is much less clear-cut since we have to push a
new value to the stack. Leave it alone for now assuming it is as good
as it is going to be; may want to check on Atom or another in-order
x86 to see if we can do better.
