Subject: i386 GDT cleanups: cleanup GDT Access
From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Now we have an explicit per-cpu GDT variable, we don't need to keep the
descriptors around to use them to find the GDT: expose cpu_gdt directly.

We could go further and make load_gdt() pack the descriptor for us, or even
assume it means "load the current cpu's GDT" which is what it always does.
