math: speed up Log on amd64

After https://golang.org/cl/31490 we break false
output dependency for CVTS.. in compiler generated code.
I've looked through asm code, which uses CVTS..
and added XOR to the only case where it affected performance.

Log-6                  21.6ns ± 0%  19.9ns ± 0%  -7.87%  (p=0.000 n=10+10)
