Lots of hard-coded values here.  Should this be #defined somewhere?

We also don't need to set bases to zero since hctxt is kzalloc'd. I'll
remove that and add a comment.

As for macros --- I couldn't find the bits defined symbolically anywhere
and since this is the only place this is used the macros would be local
here.

It could be useful to have them defined locally if only to give them
some more meaning by having a name rather than 0x8b. Just a thought.


Yes, I'll do that (or at least have a comment explaining the bits).

Looks like this we should wait with this series though until we figure 
out APIC emulation status.
