This should be fixed by r214550.

Jeff, I decided your approach was more or less correct.  When parsing direct
calls in a .s file, we form an absolute memory X86Operand, and match that
against the direct call.  However, this is obviously ambiguous with indirect
calls through memory.  gas solves this for AT&T style assembly by
disambiguating with a *:

calll foo -> call foo
calll *foo -> call dword ptr [foo]

In LLVM, this appears as a '*' in the token stream, and the asm matcher knows
to look for it.  However, for Intel syntax, we don't have any means of
disambiguating yet.  Time to file a new bug.
