Please call it CONFORM_CS_SEL since it's not really a user-mode selector
(DPL=0), it's just used as one (RPL=3).

Not needed, see below.

Please add a printf and print_current_tss_info() here.

You can use USER_DS here.  Also, please put the test in a separate
function and call it last (after test_vm86_switch), because a failure in
this test breaks test_vm86_switch too.
