x86/gdt: Use bitfields for initialization
The GDT entry related code uses two ways to access entries via
union fields:
- bitfields
- macros which initialize the two 16-bit parts of the entry
by magic shift and mask operations.
Clean it up and only use the bitfields to initialize and access entries.
( The old access patterns were partly done due to GCC optimizing bitfield
accesses in a horrible way - that's mostly fixed these days and clarity
of code in such low level accessors is very important. )
