locking/x86: Add cc clobber for ADDL

Browse source 
ADDL clobbers flags (such as CF) but barrier.h didn't tell this
to GCC. Historically, GCC doesn't need one on x86, and always
considers flags clobbered. We are probably missing the cc
clobber in a *lot* of places for this reason.

But even if not necessary, it's probably a good thing to add for
documentation, and in case GCC semantcs ever change.
