Subject: [PATCH 13/23] x86, kaiser: map espfix structures


We have some rather arcane code to help when we IRET to 16-bit
segments: the "espfix" code.  This consists of a few per-cpu
variables:

	espfix_stack: tells us where we allocated the stack
	  	      (the bottom)
	espfix_waddr: tells us where we can actually point %rsp

and the stack itself.  We need all three things mapped for this
to work.

Note: the espfix code runs with a kernel GSBASE, but user
(shadow) page tables.  We could switch to the kernel page tables
here and then not have to map any of this, but just
user-pagetable-mapping is simpler.  To switch over to the kernel
copy, we would need some temporary storage which is in short
supply at this point.

The original KAISER patch missed this case.
