Change the mov in KVM_ASM_SAFE() that zeroes @vector to a movb to
make it unambiguous.
This fixes a build failure with Clang since, unlike the GNU assembler,
the LLVM integrated assembler rejects ambiguous X86 instructions that
don't have suffixes:
In file included from x86_64/hyperv_features.c:13:
include/x86_64/processor.h:825:9: error: ambiguous instructions require an explicit suffix (could be 'movb', 'movw', 'movl', or 'movq')
return kvm_asm_safe("wrmsr", "a"(val & -1u), "d"(val >> 32), "c"(msr));

It seems like this change could introduce undesirable behavior in the
future, e.g. if someone used a type larger than a u8 for @vector, since
KVM_ASM_SAFE() will only zero the bottom byte. I tried changing the type
of @vector to an int to see what would happen. GCC failed to compile due
to a size mismatch between `movb` and `%eax`. Clang succeeded in
compiling, but the generated code looked correct, so perhaps it will not
be an issue. That being said it seems like there could be a better
solution to this issue that does not assume @vector is a u8.
