x86/paravirt: use callee-saved convention for pte_val/make_pte/etc

Impact: Optimization

In the native case, pte_val, make_pte, etc are all just identity
functions, so there's no need to clobber a lot of registers over them.

(This changes the 32-bit callee-save calling convention to return both
EAX and EDX so functions can return 64-bit values.)
