[PATCH] i386: fix dubious segment register clear in cpu_init()
Fix a very dubious piece of code in
arch/i386/kernel/cpu/common.c:cpu_init(). This clears out %fs and
%gs, but clobbers %eax in the process without telling gcc. It turns
out that gcc happens to be not using %eax at that point anyway so it
doesn't matter much, but it looks like a bomb waiting to go off.
This does end up saving an instruction, because gcc wants %eax==0 for
the set_debugreg()s below.
