With the default "nor" constraint, current GCC will use the "o"
constraint for constants, after emitting the constant to memory. That
results in unparseable Systemtap probe notes such as "-4@.L1052".
Removing the "o" alternative and using "nr" instead avoids this.

+ [BZ #24164]
+ arm: Use "nr" constraint for Systemtap probes, to avoid the
+ compiler using memory operands for constants, due to the "o"
+ alternative in the default "nor" constraint.
