x86 setup: initialize LDTR and TR to make life easier to Intel VT
Intel VT doesn't like to engage when the protected-mode state isn't fully initialized. Make life easier for it by initializing LDTR (to null) and TR (to a dummy hunk of low memory which will never actually be touched.) Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
