[PATCH] arm64: fix the build with binutils 2.27

[Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>]

Jon Hunter reports that for some toolchains the build has been broken
since commit:

  4c0bd995d73ed889 ("arm64: alternatives: have callbacks take a cap")

... with a stream of build-time splats of the form:

|   CC      arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/vhe/debug-sr.o

| scripts/Makefile.build:249: recipe for target
| 'arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/vhe/debug-sr.o' failed

The issue here is that older versions of binutils (up to and including
2.27.0) don't like an 'L' suffix on constants. For plain assembly files,
UL() avoids this suffix, but in C files this gets added, and so for
inline assembly we can't directly use a constant defined with `UL()`.

We could avoid this by passing the constant as an input parameter, but
this isn't practical given the way we use the alternative macros.
Instead, just open code the constant without the `UL` suffix, and for
consistency do this for both the inline assembly macro and the regular
assembly macro.
