Subject: selftests/x86/fsgsbase: Test selectors 1, 2, and 3
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 23d98c204386a98d9ef9f9e744f41443ece4929f upstream.
Those are funny cases. Make sure they work.
(Something is screwy with signal handling if a selector is 1, 2, or 3.
Anyone who wants to dive into that rabbit hole is welcome to do so.)
