+ * These are even more complicated than FS and GS: they have
+ * 64-bit bases are that controlled by arch_prctl. Those bases
+ * only differ from the values in the GDT or LDT if the selector
+ * is 0.
+ *
+ * Loading the segment register resets the hidden base part of
+ * the register to 0 or the value from the GDT / LDT. If the
+ * next base address zero, writing 0 to the segment register is
+ * much faster than using wrmsr to explicitly zero the base.
+ *
+ * The thread_struct.fs and thread_struct.gs values are 0
+ * if the fs and gs bases respectively are not overridden
+ * from the values implied by fsindex and gsindex. They
+ * are nonzero, and store the nonzero base addresses, if
+ * the bases are overridden.
+ *
+ * (fs != 0 && fsindex != 0) || (gs != 0 && gsindex != 0) should
+ * be impossible.
+ *
+ * Therefore we need to reload the segment registers if either
+ * the old or new selector is nonzero, and we need to override
+ * the base address if next thread expects it to be overridden.
+ *
+ * This code is unnecessarily slow in the case where the old and
+ * new indexes are zero and the new base is nonzero -- it will
+ * unnecessarily write 0 to the selector before writing the new
+ * base address.
+ *
+ * Note: This all depends on arch_prctl being the only way that
+ * user code can override the segment base. Once wrfsbase and
