Subject[v3 04/12] x86/fsgsbase/64: Enable FSGSBASE instructions in the helper functions
Date
The helper functions will switch on faster accesses to FSBASE and GSBASE
when the FSGSBASE feature is enabled.

Accessing user GSBASE needs a couple of SWAPGS operations. It is avoidable
if the user GSBASE is saved at kernel entry, being updated as changes, and
restored back at kernel exit. However, it seems to spend more cycles for
savings and restorations. Little or no benefit was measured from
experiments.
