_REGION_ENTRY_HARDWARE_BITS is missing too. :)

And this definition also raises the question if the definition of
_SEGMENT_ENTRY_HARDWARE_BITS_LARGE should be changed so it also includes
the table type bits, which it probably should.

These masks are really a bit randomly defined and assume that the
ACCF-Validity control bit is never set, and therefore the ACC bitfield can
be assumed to be software bits (and they are used as such for format 1
segment table entries).

But the ACCF bit is also a hardware bit in any case... oh well.
