ARM: mvebu: Fix the operand list in the inline asm of armada_370_xp_pmsu_idle_enter
In the inline asm part of the function armada_370_xp_pmsu_idle_enter() the input operand was used. The intent here was to let the compiler choose this register so it could do the optimization it needed. However an input operand is not supposed to be modified by the inline asm code. This can lead to improper generated instructions. In some case generated instruction the compiler made the choice to reuse the same register to store the return value. But in the assembly part this register was modified, so it can lead to return an wrong value. The fix is to use a clobber. Thanks to this the compiler will know that the value of this register will be modified.
