[Xen-devel] [PATCH 08/12] xen/arm: cpufeature: Match register size with value size in cpus_have_const_cap

[Julien Grall <julien.grall@xxxxxxx>]

Clang is pickier than GCC for the register size in asm statement. It
expects the register size to match the value size.

The asm statement expects a 32-bit (resp. 64-bit) value on Arm32
(resp. Arm64) whereas the value is a boolean (Clang consider to be
32-bit).

It would be possible to impose 32-bit register for both architecture
but this require the code to use __OP32. However, it does no really
improve the assembly generated. Instead, replace switch the variable to
use register_t.
