    x86/insn: Fix PUSH instruction in x86 instruction decoder opcode map
    
    [ Upstream commit 59162e0c11d7257cde15f907d19fefe26da66692 ]
    
    The x86 instruction decoder is used not only for decoding kernel
    instructions. It is also used by perf uprobes (user space probes) and by
    perf tools Intel Processor Trace decoding. Consequently, it needs to
    support instructions executed by user space also.
    
    Opcode 0x68 PUSH instruction is currently defined as 64-bit operand size
    only i.e. (d64). That was based on Intel SDM Opcode Map. However that is
    contradicted by the Instruction Set Reference section for PUSH in the
    same manual.
    
    Remove 64-bit operand size only annotation from opcode 0x68 PUSH
    instruction.
    
    Example:
    
      $ cat pushw.s
      .global  _start
      .text
      _start:
              pushw   $0x1234
              mov     $0x1,%eax   # system call number (sys_exit)
              int     $0x80
      $ as -o pushw.o pushw.s
      $ ld -s -o pushw pushw.o
      $ objdump -d pushw | tail -4
      0000000000401000 <.text>:
        401000:       66 68 34 12             pushw  $0x1234
        401004:       b8 01 00 00 00          mov    $0x1,%eax
        401009:       cd 80                   int    $0x80
      $ perf record -e intel_pt//u ./pushw
      [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
      [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.014 MB perf.data ]
    
     Before:
    
      $ perf script --insn-trace=disasm
