I guess this is the quote from AMD's manual (might we worth to add to the source?)


"The 64-bit system-segment base address must be in canonical form. Otherwise, a general-protection
exception occurs with a selector error-code, #GP(selector), when the system segment is loaded.
System-segment limit values are checked by the processor in both 64-bit and compatibility modes,
under the control of the granularity (G) bit."
