Fix thinko in linuxboot.S
The %gs segment that was used was not matching the comments. I just moved the GDT descriptor on the stack instead. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> (cherry picked from commit 36ecd7c016f682437941a54193251cbf918bef0d)
