x86: fix readb() et al compile error with gcc-3.2.3
Building 2.6.27-rc1 on x86 with gcc-3.2.3 fails with:
In file included from include/asm/dma.h:12,
from include/linux/bootmem.h:8,
from init/main.c:26:
include/asm/io.h: In function `readb':
include/asm/io.h:32: syntax error before string constant
include/asm/io.h: In function `readw':

make[1]: *** [init/main.o] Error 1
make: *** [init] Error 2
Starting with 2.6.27-rc1 readb() et al are generated by a
build_mmio_read() macro, which generates asm() statements with
output register constraints like "=" "q", i.e. as two adjacent
string literals. This doesn't work with gcc-3.2.3.
Fixed by moving the "=" part into the callers' reg parameter
(as suggested by Ingo).
Build and boot-tested with gcc-3.2.3 on 32 and 64-bit x86.
