Since GCC < 5.1 has been shown to be unsuitable for the arm64 kernel,
let's drop the workaround for the 'S' asm constraint that GCC 4.9
doesn't always grok.
This is effectively a revert of 9fd339a45be5 ("arm64: Work around
broken GCC 4.9 handling of "S" constraint").

It looks like I merged this fix in -rc1. Do you want me to merge the
revert as well or you'll handle it?

It'd make sense if it went via the arm64 tree as well.
Thanks,

Applied to arm64 (for-next/misc), thanks!
