[PATCH] x86: Work around gcc 4.2 over aggressive optimizer
The new PDA code uses a dummy _proxy_pda variable to describe memory references to the PDA. It is never referenced in inline assembly, but exists as input/output arguments. gcc 4.2 in some cases can CSE references to this which causes unresolved symbols. Define it to zero to avoid this.
