x86/entry/64: Use JMP instead of JMPQ
commit 64dbc12 upstream.
Somehow the swapgs mitigation entry code patch ended up with a JMPQ
instruction instead of JMP, where only the short jump is needed. Some
assembler versions apparently fail to optimize JMPQ into a two-byte JMP
when possible, instead always using a 7-byte JMP with relocation. For
some reason that makes the entry code explode with a #GP during boot.
Change it back to "JMP" as originally intended.
Fixes: 18ec54f ("x86/speculation: Prepare entry code for Spectre v1 swapgs mitigations")
