#1602933 — [PATCH 7/7] crypto, x86, LLVM: aesni - fix token pasting

aes_ctrby8_avx-x86_64.S uses the C preprocessor for token pasting
of character sequences that are not valid preprocessor tokens.
While this is allowed when preprocessing assembler files it exposes
an incompatibilty between the clang and gcc preprocessors where
clang does not strip leading white space from macro parameters,
leading to the CONCAT(%xmm, i) macro expansion on line 96 resulting
in a token with a space character embedded in it.

While this could be fixed by deleting the offending space character,
the assembler is perfectly capable of handling the token pasting
correctly for itself so it seems preferable to let it do so and to
get rid or the CONCAT(), DDQ() and XMM() preprocessor macros.
