x86/asm/segment: Remove unnecessary "memory" clobber from savesegment()

The savesegment() macro uses inline assembly to copy a segment register
into a general-purpose register:

  movl %seg, reg

This instruction does not access memory, yet the inline asm currently
declares a "memory" clobber, which unnecessarily acts as a compiler
barrier and may inhibit optimization.

Remove the "memory" clobber and mark the asm as `asm volatile` instead.
Segment register loads in the kernel are implemented using `asm volatile`,
so the compiler will not schedule segment register reads before those
loads. Using `asm volatile` preserves the intended ordering with other
segment register operations without imposing an unnecessary global memory
barrier.

No functional change intended.
