SubjectRe: 2.6.18-rc6-mm1: GPF loop on early boot
Jeremy,

another thing about i386-pda: why did you pick the %gs selector to store 
the PDA in? %fs would be a better choice because %gs is used by glibc so 
the saving/restoring of %fs would likely be near zero-cycles cost. 
(instead of the current 9 cycles for saving/restoring %gs)
