SubjectRe: [PATCH] 7/8 Create accessors that allow the i386 kernel to run at CPLs 0-2

No issue here, but there's some overlap from my side that needs merging
(note, as with all the others, mine are against 2.6.12, to user_mode(),
for example, has changed since then). Also note, the segment bit is
still much too heavy handed on my side (looks like you are generally
further along than I am ;-) so I still have some refactoring to do.
