Please improve the comment. Since commit:

commit 385eca8f277c4c34f361a4c3a088fd876d29ae21

    x86/asm/32: Make pt_regs's segment registers be 16 bits

Those fields are genuinely 16 bit.  So the comment should say
something like "Those high bits are used for CS_FROM_ENTRY_STACK and
CS_FROM_USER_CR3".

Also, can you fold something like this in:

diff --git a/arch/x86/entry/entry_32.S b/arch/x86/entry/entry_32.S
