x86/tls: Forcibly set the accessed bit in TLS segments

For mysterious historical reasons, struct user_desc doesn't indicate
whether segments are accessed.  set_thread_area() has always programmed
segments as non-accessed, so the first write will set the accessed bit.
This will fault if the GDT is read-only.

Fix it by making TLS segments start out accessed.

If this ends up breaking something, we could, in principle, leave TLS
segments non-accessed and fix them up when we get the page fault.  I'd be
surprised, though -- AFAIK all the nasty legacy segmented programs (DOSEMU,
Wine, things that run on DOSEMU and Wine, etc.) do their nasty segmented
things using the LDT and not the GDT.  I assume this is mainly because old
OSes (Linux and otherwise) didn't historically provide APIs to do nasty
things in the GDT.
