tcg-i386: Remove abort from GETPC_LDST

Indeed, remove it entirely and remove the is_tcg_gen_code check
from GETPC_EXT.

Fixes https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1218098 wherein a call
to a "normal" helper function performed a sequence of tail calls
all the way into the memory helper functions, leading to a stack
frame in which the memory helper function appeared to be called
directly from tcg.

This is actually conclusive proof that using is_tcg_gen_code, and
thus any scheme that requires GETPC_LDST, is fundamentally flawed.

Thankfully, the follow-up patch sets that I've already posted give
a framework for properly fixing this.  I've already posted a cleanup
for ARM to fix this.  I have pending but unposted patch sets for
AArch64 and PowerPC.

In the meantime, please apply this fix for x86_64 asap.

I also have something working for PPC since I have old hardware...  I'm
waiting for the API to settle before posting patches.

I've gotten the admins to install enough of a 32-bit environment
on the GCC compile farm's power7 box to test there, but it'll be
nice to have a confirm on old hw too.

This fixes the bug I saw.

Thanks, applied.
