Hmm, I have no idea why 64b didn't have problem with the asm but 32b
complains. Anyway, the following makes both happy. I have checked the
generated code for 64b and it hasn't changed after the patch. 32b also
seems to be generating a proper code. My gcc asm()-foo is rather weak so
I would feel better if somebody double checked after me.

Subject: [PATCH] x86: __down_read_trylock fix 32b build failure

Ingo has noticed the following compilation error with CONFIG_X86_32=y
./arch/x86/include/asm/rwsem.h:106:2: error: ‘asm’ operand has impossible constraints
The reason seems to be that 32b doesn't like ret being input and output
argument sharing the same register with sem which is only the input. Fix
this by making ret output only and use %3 (aka sem) for xadd.
ret initialization is not needed now because this is done implicitly
by the asm even for the fast path as both sem and ret share the same
register.
