X64\ExceptionHandlerAsm.S define MARCO to set up 32 IDT entries header.
It assume GCC compiler will generate the same code length on the following
instrction for each IDT entry.
  jmp    ASM_PFX(CommonInterruptEntry)

It works with GCC 4.x. However, GCC 5.4 will generate different code size of IDT
entry code per the offset value from CommonInterruptEntry address. We should use
DB to make sure each IDT entry header has the same size whatever compiler
version.

.ASM and .nasm used the different solution and do not have this issue.
