[PATCH 4/4] i386 GDT cleanups: cleanup GDT Access

From: Rusty Russell
Date: Wed Mar 21 2007 - 02:54:14 EST


Now we have an explicit per-cpu GDT variable, we don't need to keep
the descriptors around to use them to find the GDT: expose cpu_gdt
directly.

We could go further and make load_gdt() pack the descriptor for us, or
even assume it means "load the current cpu's GDT" which is what it
always does.
