Sean Christopherson b093f87fd1 KVM: selftests: Drop @selector from segment helpers
Drop the @selector from the kernel code, data, and TSS builders and
instead hardcode the respective selector in the helper.  Accepting a
selector but not a base makes the selector useless, e.g. the data helper
can't create per-vCPU for FS or GS, and so loading GS with KERNEL_DS is
the only logical choice.

And for code and TSS, there is no known reason to ever want multiple
segments, e.g. there are zero plans to support 32-bit kernel code (and
again, that would require more than just the selector).

If KVM selftests ever do add support for per-vCPU segments, it'd arguably
be more readable to add a dedicated helper for building/setting the
per-vCPU segment, and move the common data segment code to an inner
helper.

Lastly, hardcoding the selector reduces the probability of setting the
wrong selector in the vCPU versus what was created by the VM in the GDT.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
