[PATCH v9 1/5] x86/boot: Remove "cc" clobber from memcmp()

According to the GCC documentation, conditions in the flags register
(e.g., "=@ccnz") are output operands [1] and the compiler is aware [2].

Also, clobbers (e.g., "cc") may not overlap with an output operand [2].

Thus, remove the "cc" clobber as it is redudant, and overlaps with, the
"=@ccnz" output operand.

    """
    6.11.2.4 Flag Output Operands

        On some targets, a special form of output operand exists by which
        conditions in the flags register may be outputs of the asm. [...]

    6.11.2.6 Clobbers and Scratch Registers

        While the compiler is aware of changes to entries listed in the
        output operands, [...]

        Clobber descriptions may not in any way overlap with an input or
        output operand. [...]
