From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

Data segment selectors are ignored in long mode so there is no point in
programming them. So clear them instead. This only leaves the code
segment entry in the GDT, which can be moved up a slot now that the
second slot is no longer used as the GDT descriptor.
