x86/asm: Add DB flag to 32-bit percpu GDT entry
The D/B size flag for the 32-bit percpu GDT entry was not set. The Intel manual (vol 3, section 3.4.5) only specifies the meaning of this flag for three cases: 1) code segments used for %cs -- doesn't apply here 2) stack segments used for %ss -- doesn't apply 3) expand-down data segments -- but we don't have the expand-down flag set, so it also doesn't apply here The flag likely doesn't do anything here, although the manual does also say: "This flag should always be set to 1 for 32-bit code and data segments [...]" so we should probably do it anyway.
