x86_64: add 64-bit syscall entry point
While theoretically we could still use the same call gate as for
32-bit userspace, it doesn't seem very common, and gcc seems to not
encode properly the instruction. Instead we use syscall/sysret as
other kernels (e.g. XNU,Linux). This version still has some
limitations, but should be enough to start working on the 64-bit user
space.
* i386/i386/i386asm.sym: add more constants to fill pcb->iss
* i386/i386/ldt.c: configure 64-bit syscall entry point. We can just
check for the SEP bit as MSR are always available on x86_64.
* i386/i386/ldt.h: swap CS/DS segments order if !USER32 as required by
sysret
* i386/i386/locore.h: add syscall64 prototype
* i386/i386/msr.h: add MSR definitions and C read/write helpers
* i386/include/mach/i386/syscall_sw.h: remove old BSD_TRAP
* x86_64/Makefrag.am: selectively install syscall_sw.h depending on
USER32
* x86_64/include/syscall_sw.h: add entry point template from user
space
* x86_64/locore.S: implement syscall64 entry point and use it when a
64-bit user-space is configured
