This one took a long time to rear up because LDT usage is not very

another bug, already fixed, by 75b8bb3e56ca09a467fbbe5229bc68627f7445be
Please apply. Fix should also be headed for stable tree and backported,
it is really sadly trivial. Glauber, Ingo, sorry for the offlist
posting, somehow the original missed LKML.
- vmi_ops.write_idt_entry(dt, entry, ldt_entry[0], ldt_entry[1]);
+ vmi_ops.write_ldt_entry(dt, entry, ldt_entry[0], ldt_entry[1]);
oops. Applied to tip/x86/urgent, thanks Zachary!
