Subject[PATCHv2] x86: Use wrmsrl in kprobes.c, step.c
From
Date
Where x86_32 passed zero in the high 32 bits, use wrmsrl which
will zero extend for us. This allows ifdefs for 32/64 bit to
be eliminated.

Eliminate ifdef in step.c. Similar cleanup was done when unifying
kprobes_32|64.c and wrmsr() was chosen there over wrmsrl(). This
patch changes these to wrmsrl.
