x86: segment selector macros
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This copies into asm-x86/segment_64.h some macros from asm-x86/segment_32.h
for dissecting segment selectors.  This lets other code use these macros
uniformly on 32/64-bit rather than duplicating the constants elsewhere.
