[Lguest] [RFC 1/1 linux-next] tools/lguest: update variables to avoid setreg(eax, eax)

eax is used for offset calculation but is also a local
variable used to store register value.
Use val for value and defval for default value to remove
this ambiguity.

Thanks to Julia Lawall for Coccinelle scripting support.
