Would be better to make these symmetric in their mask types.

&& -> |.  Parentheses unnecessary.

Missing space.

Need to clear this unconditionally, otherwise 'sti; mov ss' will set 
both flags.

I suggest we deal with the case where both are set.  One day we'll live 
migrate this state, and if we come from an AMD host, we might get this 
state.
