Yes, it should be a separate patch anyway.

GUEST_CS_BASE and GUEST_CS_LIMIT probably matter for 32-bit guests, but
I guess it's okay to remove them.  GUEST_CS_SELECTOR probably dates back
to when we were incorrectly using CPL=CS.RPL instead of CPL=SS.DPL, and
can be removed too.

GUEST_ES_BASE alone is quite useless, so it can go.
