- Introduce symbolic names via macros for descriptor
types/fields/flags, and then use these symbolic names.

- Clean up definitions a bit, such as GDT_ENTRY_INIT()

- Fix/clean up details that became visibly inconsistent after the
symbol-based code was introduced:

- Unify accessed flag handling

- Set the D/B size flag consistently & according to the HW
specification"

x86/asm: Replace magic numbers in GDT descriptors, preparations

We'd like to replace all the magic numbers in various GDT descriptors
with new, semantically meaningful, symbolic values.

In order to be able to verify that the change doesn't cause any actual
changes to the compiled binary code, I've split the change into two
patches:

- Part 1 (this commit): everything _but_ actually replacing the numbers
- Part 2 (the following commit): _only_ replacing the numbers

The reason we need this split for verification is that including new
headers causes some spurious changes to the object files, mostly line
number changes in the debug info but occasionally other subtle codegen
changes.

x86/asm: Provide new infrastructure for GDT descriptors

Linus suggested replacing the magic numbers in the GDT descriptors
using preprocessor macros. Designing the interface properly is actually
pretty hard -- there are several constraints:

- you want the final expressions to be readable at a glance; something
like GDT_ENTRY_FLAGS(5, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0) isn't because you need
to visit the definition to understand what each parameter represents
and then match up parameters in the user and the definition (which is
hard when there are so many of them)

- you want the final expressions to be fairly short/information-dense;
something like GDT_ENTRY_PRESENT | GDT_ENTRY_DATA_WRITABLE |
GDT_ENTRY_SYSTEM | GDT_ENTRY_DB | GDT_ENTRY_GRANULARITY_4K is a bit
too verbose to write out every time and is actually hard to read as
well because of all the repetition

- you may want to assume defaults for some things (e.g. entries are
DPL-0 a.k.a. kernel segments by default) and allow the user to
override the default -- but this works best if you can OR in the
override; if you want DPL-3 by default and override with DPL-0 you
would need to start masking off bits instead of OR-ing them in and
that just becomes harder to read

- you may want to parameterize some things (e.g. CODE vs. DATA or
KERNEL vs. USER) since both values are used and you don't really
want prefer either one by default -- or DPL, which is always some
value that is always specified

This patch tries to balance these requirements and has two layers of
definitions -- low-level and high-level:

- the low-level defines are the mapping between human-readable names
and the actual bit numbers

- the high-level defines are the mapping from high-level intent to
combinations of low-level flags, representing roughly a tuple
(data/code/tss, 64/32/16-bits) plus an override for DPL-3 (= USER),
since that's relatively rare but still very important to mark
properly for those segments.

- we have *_BIOS variants for 32-bit code and data segments that don't
have the G flag set and give the limit in terms of bytes instead of
pages
