[PATCH] x86_64: Align and pad x86_64 GDT on page boundary
This patch is on the same lines as Zachary Amsden's i386 GDT page alignemnt patch in -mm, but for x86_64. Patch to align and pad x86_64 GDT on page boundries. [AK: some minor cleanups and fixed incorrect TLS initialization in CPU init.] Signed-off-by: Nippun Goel <nippung@calsoftinc.com> Signed-off-by: Ravikiran Thirumalai <kiran@scalex86.org> Signed-off-by: Shai Fultheim <shai@scalex86.org> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
