Commutative operands in longlong.h

  I notice many of the umul_ppmm implementations in longlong.h do not use the
  commutative constraint for inputs, e.g.,
  
  *"%r" (m0), "r" (m1)*
  
  Is there a reason for this? It would seem to deny the compiler better
  register scheduling opportunities. e.g., ARM / AArch64.

It is written like that when the constraints for the two commutative
operands are the same.  Gcc will then never need to swap them.

(If you find a case where % is missing and the constraints are the same,
please let us know.)
