x86/entry/32: Fix entry_INT80_32() to expect interrupts to be on
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When I rewrote entry_INT80_32, I thought that int80 was an
interrupt gate.  It's a trap gate.  *facepalm*

Thanks to Brian Gerst for pointing out that it's better to
change the entry code than to change the gate type.
