[PATCH 2/2] x86/process: Use storesegment() when saving segment selectors

[Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@gmail.com>]

Switch segment save sites in copy_thread() and save_fsgs() from
savesegment() to the newly introduced storesegment() helper.

These call sites only store the segment selector into a u16 field
and do not require the value in a general-purpose register. Using
storesegment() avoids the unnecessary register intermediate and
better matches the intended use.

The generated code is improved from, e.g.:

     34f:	8c c0                	mov    %es,%eax
     351:	66 89 83 08 0c 00 00 	mov    %ax,0xc08(%rbx)

to a single direct store:

     34f:	8c 83 08 0c 00 00    	mov    %es,0xc08(%rbx)

This is a mechanical follow-up to the introduction of
storesegment(), with no functional change.
