x86: correct LDT checks
- MMUEXT_SET_LDT should behave as similarly to the LLDT instruction as possible: fail only if the base address is non-canonical - instead LDT descriptor accesses should fault if the descriptor address ends up being non-canonical (by ensuring this we at once avoid reading an entry from the mach-to-phys table and consider it a page table entry) - fault propagation on using LDT selectors must distinguish #PF and #GP (the latter must be raised for a non-canonical descriptor address, which also applies to several other uses of propagate_page_fault(), and hence the problem is being fixed there) - map_ldt_shadow_page() should properly wrap addresses for 32-bit VMs At once remove the odd invokation of map_ldt_shadow_page() from the MMUEXT_SET_LDT handler: There's nothing really telling us that the first LDT page is going to be preferred over others.
