Which comes out to:
ljmp $96,$1f			#[KERNEL_CS]
1:
movl $104,%eax  #, dummy        #[KERNEL_DS] 
movl %eax,%ss   # dummy                                                         
movl $123,%eax  #, dummy         #[USER_DS]                                      
movl %eax,%ds   # dummy                                                         
movl %eax,%es   # dummy    

And that looks right
