Subject: [PATCH v2] x86, traps: separate set_intr_gate() and cleanup early_trap_init().

As early_trap_init() doesn't use IST, replace set_intr_gate_ist() and
set_system_intr_gate_ist() with their standard counterparts.

set_intr_gate() requires a trace_debug symbol which we don't have and
won't use. This patch seprates set_intr_gate() into 2 parts, and uses
base version in early_trap_init().

Hi Andy Lutomirski,

   This patch should be less tricky than previous one [1]. I also tried
   to renaming all set_intr_gate(), but it causes too many code changes,
   so I think you will be satisfied with this one.

Thank you!
