Let's give the compiler as much liberty in picking instruction operands
as possible. Also drop unnecessary size modifiers when the correct size
can already be derived from the asm() operands. Finally also drop an
"unsigned" from idiv_dbl()'s second parameter, allowing a cast to be
eliminated.

This =q could become =qm, like the even_parity() change.

What is the purpose of both the explicit cast and k constraint?

Ah, indeed. And there are a couple more.

Operand size gets (or at least may get) derived from the output
operand. While we could also constrain that one to 32 bits, it
seems better to have the whole dst.val written just in case. Of
src.val, otoh, we definitely only need to load the low 32 bits
(possibly saving a REX prefix), and we also definitely need to
force the bswap to have 32-bit operand size.
