ASM_INT() is defined in arch/[arm|x86]/include/asm/asm_defns.h in
exactly the same way. Instead of replicating this definition for riscv
and ppc, move it to include/xen/linkage.h, where other arch agnostic
definitions for assembler code are living already.

Adapt the generation of assembler sources via tools/binfile to include
the new home of ASM_INT().

And this is why I didn't make a change right away, back when noticing the
duplication: Arch-agnostic really means ...

... to avoid .long [1]. There's no arch-independent aspect guaranteeing
that what .long emits matches "unsigned int" as used e.g. in the
declaration of xen_config_data_size. The arch-agnostic directives are
.dc.l and friends. Sadly Clang looks to support this only starting with
version 4.

Nevertheless, seeing that Andrew ack-ed the change already, it's perhaps
good enough for the moment. If an obscure port appeared, the further
abstraction could be taken care of by them.

[1] Note how in gas doc .long refers to .int, .int says "32-bit", just
to then have a special case of H8/300 emitting 16-bit values. Things
must have been confusing enough for someone to come and add .dc.?.

I'd forgotten that point, but I don't think it's a good reason force
every architecture to implement the same thing.

Borrowing a trick from the alternatives, what about this as a sanity check?

Ideally we'd want BYTES_PER_INT here but it turns out that doesn't exist
in Xen.  If we find an architecture where .long isn't the right thing,
we can make ASM_INT optionally arch-specific.

Of course.

Hmm, tools/binfile may not be involved in a build, yet ASM_INT() may
still be used. Since there may not be any good place, I think we're
okay-ish for now without such a check.

We don't even need to go this far - merely introducing an abstraction
for .long would suffice, and then also allow using that in bug.h.

Ok.  I'll take this patch as-is for now.  We can abstract away .long later.
