[PATCH stable 5.10.y] x86/bugs: Use code segment selector for VERW operand

From: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit e4d2102018542e3ae5e297bc6e229303abff8a0f upstream.

Robert Gill reported below #GP in 32-bit mode when dosemu software was
executing vm86() system call:

  general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

This only happens in 32-bit mode when VERW based mitigations like MDS/RFDS
are enabled. This is because segment registers with an arbitrary user value
can result in #GP when executing VERW. Intel SDM vol. 2C documents the
following behavior for VERW instruction:

  #GP(0) - If a memory operand effective address is outside the CS, DS, ES,
	   FS, or GS segment limit.

CLEAR_CPU_BUFFERS macro executes VERW instruction before returning to user
space. Use %cs selector to reference VERW operand. This ensures VERW will
not #GP for an arbitrary user %ds.

[ mingo: Fixed the SOB chain. ]
