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.
