x86/asm: Don't use the confusing '.ifeq' directive

Browse source

commit 82c62fa0c4 upstream.

I find the '.ifeq <expression>' directive to be confusing.  Reading it
quickly seems to suggest its opposite meaning, or that it's missing an
argument.

Improve readability by replacing all of its x86 uses with
'.if <expression> == 0'.
