Merge tag 'x86-asm-2024-01-08' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Replace magic numbers in GDT descriptor definitions & handling:

   - Introduce symbolic names via macros for descriptor
     types/fields/flags, and then use these symbolic names.

   - Clean up definitions a bit, such as GDT_ENTRY_INIT()

   - Fix/clean up details that became visibly inconsistent after the
     symbol-based code was introduced:

      - Unify accessed flag handling

      - Set the D/B size flag consistently & according to the HW
        specification"
