Commit 92cbbad
x86/gsseg: Use the LKGS instruction if available for load_gs_index()
The LKGS instruction atomically loads a segment descriptor into the
%gs descriptor registers, *except* that %gs.base is unchanged, and the
base is instead loaded into MSR_IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE, which is exactly
what we want this function to do.
