arch/x86,cpu/x86: Disable the %gs and %fs segments
The %fs and %gs segment are typically used to implement thread local storage or cpu local storage. We don't currently use these in coreboot, so there is no reason to map them. By setting the segment index to 0, it disables the segment. If an instruction tries to read from one of these segments an exception will be raised. The end goal is to make cpu_info() use the %gs segment. This will remove the stack alignment requirements and fix smm_do_relocation.
