GPL. Also, can you add a static inline unsigned long this_cpu_kernelmode_gs_base() that returns the actual value and then use it here and in arch/x86/cpu/common.c? I really don't like the way that KVM code hardcodes all kinds of assumptions about how the rest of the x86 code works rather than improving the x86 code to have the right hooks for KVM's use.
