    x86/gdt: Use bitfields for initialization · 38e9e81f
    Thomas Gleixner 提交于
    The GDT entry related code uses two ways to access entries via
    union fields:
    
     - bitfields
    
     - macros which initialize the two 16-bit parts of the entry
       by magic shift and mask operations.
    
    Clean it up and only use the bitfields to initialize and access entries.
    
    ( The old access patterns were partly done due to GCC optimizing bitfield
      accesses in a horrible way - that's mostly fixed these days and clarity
      of code in such low level accessors is very important. )
