x86, processor-flags: Fix the datatypes and add bit number defines
commit d1fbefcb upstream. The control registers are unsigned long (32 bits on i386, 64 bits on x86-64), and so make that manifest in the data type for the various constants. Add defines with a _BIT suffix which defines the bit number, as opposed to the bit mask. This should resolve some issues with ~bitmask that Linus discovered.
