[PATCH v3 4/7] x86/tls: create an explicit config symbol for the TLS area in the GDT

From: H. Peter Anvin, Intel
Date: Thu Jun 21 2018 - 17:18:21 EST


From: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Instead of using X86_32 || IA32_EMULATION, which is really rather ugly
in the Makefile especially, create a dedicated config symbol for the
TLS area. This will be further used in subsequent patches.
