ebb3e413dd Update GDT code in post (no data segments anymore)
We also load 0 into all data segment registers to avoid future problems with iretq. Also: minor wording improvements.

8f8b46a9b6 Load null selectors to all data registers
This is required for some instructions such as iretq (ss must be valid or 0).

e121edced2 Change the GDT push logic
Instead of looking for a zero field, we now keep track of the next free index in a separate field. This avoids the bug that the high u64 of a pushed TSS descriptor is treated as empty.
