x86, selftests: Add a test for the "sysret_ss_attrs" bug
On AMD CPUs, SYSRET can return with a valid SS descriptor with
with the hidden attributes set to an unusable state. Make sure
the kernel doesn't let this happen. This detects an
as-yet-unfixed regression.
Note that the 64-bit version of this test fails on AMD CPUs on
all kernel versions, although the issue in the 64-bit case is
much less severe than in the 32-bit case.
