i8k: Avoid lahf in 64-bit code
commit bc1f419c76a2d6450413ce4349f4e4a07be011d5 upstream. i8k uses lahf to read the flag register in 64-bit code; early x86-64 CPUs, however, lack this instruction and we get an invalid opcode exception at runtime. Use pushf to load the flag register into the stack instead.
