Restore the segment registers and segment base MSRs for amd64 syscall
return path only when neither thread was context switched while
executing syscall code nor syscall explicitely modified LDT or MSRs.
Save segment registers in trap handlers before interrupts are enabled,
to not allow context switches to happen before registers are saved.
Use separated byte in pcb for indication of fast/full return, since
pcb_flags are not synchronized with context switches.
The change puts back syscall microbenchmark numbers that were slowed
down after commit of the support for LDT on amd64.
