Misc updates:
- Extend the x86 family/model macros with a steppings dimension,
because x86 life isn't complex enough and Intel uses steppings to
differentiate between different CPUs. :-/
- Convert the TSC deadline timer quirks to the steppings macros.
- Clean up asm mnemonics.
- Fix the handling of an AMD erratum, or in other words, fix a kernel erratum.

x86/cpu: Use RDRAND and RDSEED mnemonics in archrandom.h
Current minimum required version of binutils is 2.23,
which supports RDRAND and RDSEED instruction mnemonics.
Replace the byte-wise specification of RDRAND and
RDSEED with these proper mnemonics.
