uprobes/x86: Allow to probe a NOP instruction with 0x66 prefix

Intel ICC -hotpatch inserts 2-byte "0x66 0x90" NOP at the start of each
function to reserve extra space for hot-patching, and currently it is not
possible to probe these functions because branch_setup_xol_ops() wrongly
rejects NOP with REP prefix as it treats them like word-sized branch
instructions.

Fixes: 250bbd12c2fe ("uprobes/x86: Refuse to attach uprobe to "word-sized" branch insns")
