percpu: Avoid extra NOP in percpu_cmpxchg16b_double

percpu_cmpxchg16b_double() uses alternative_io() and looks like :

e8 .. .. .. ..  call this_cpu_cmpxchg16b_emu
X bytes	    NOPX

or, once patched (if cpu supports native instruction) on SMP build :

65 48 0f c7 0e  cmpxchg16b %gs:(%rsi)
0f 94 c0        sete %al

on !SMP build :

48 0f c7 0e     cmpxchg16b (%rsi)
0f 94 c0        sete %al

Therefore, NOPX should be :

P6_NOP3 on SMP
P6_NOP2 on !SMP
