Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/umip: Add emulation/spoofing for SLDT and STR instructions

Add emulation/spoofing of SLDT and STR for both 32- and 64-bit
processes.

Wine users have found a small number of Windows apps using SLDT that
were crashing when run on UMIP-enabled systems.

v3: Use (GDT_ENTRY_TSS * 8) for task register selector instead of
harcoding 0x40.

This brace should go in the previous line. Also, if you use braces in
the last part of the conditional you should probably use them in the
previous ones. I guess in this case it woudln't improve readability.
Instead, you can probably have a switch instead of the three ifs. That
probably does improve readability and solves the dilemma of needing to
put braces in all the one-line conditionals.

BTW, you should also delete the comment at the top of the file saying
that str and sldt will not be emulated:

... And also explain that the emulated values for str and sldt are the
simply the values that Linux assigns programatically.
