x86/ptrace: Remove set_segment_reg() implementations for current

seg_segment_reg() should be unreachable with task == current.
Rather than confusingly trying to make it work, just explicitly
disable this case.

(regset->get is used for current in the coredump code, but the ->set
 interface is only used for ptrace, and you can't ptrace yourself.)
