x86/alternatives: Add missing '\n' at end of ALTERNATIVE inline asm
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Where an ALTERNATIVE is used in the middle of an inline asm block, this
would otherwise lead to the following instruction being appended directly
to the trailing ".popsection", and a failed compile.

Fixes: 9cebed4 ("x86, alternative: Use .pushsection/.popsection")
