  As clang doesn't allow .fill to refernece a symbol before it's defined,
use asm_fred_entrypoint_user instead of asm_fred_entrypoint_kernel.

Fixes: 5e0636a41485 ("x86/fred: FRED entry/exit and dispatch code")

.fill and .org here are redundant; in fact, there two directives mean exactly the same thing except that .org implicitly subtracts the current offset.

Ah, right, .fill already does the job!

I will remove .org.

Incidentally, was there a problem with .org ..., 0xcc?

Not a criticism, I just want to know to better understand current 
binutils limitations.

Oh, it's just that I didn't know .org can be used to fill.
