Liu Pingfan noticed that switch_to() clobbers more registers than its
asm constraints specify.

We get away with this due to luck mostly - schedule()
by its nature only has 'local' state which gets reloaded
automatically. Fix it nevertheless, we could hit this anytime.

it turns out that with the extra constraints gcc manages to make
schedule() even more compact:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  28626     684    2640   31950    7cce sched.o.before
  28613     684    2640   31937    7cc1 sched.o.after
