* SYSENTER case: SYSENTER does not clear TF, so SYSENTER with TF set
* immediately issues #DB from CPL 0. This requires special handling in
* the kernel.

* This test is particularly interesting if fast syscalls use
* SYSENTER: it triggers a nasty design flaw in SYSENTER.
* Specifically, SYSENTER does not clear TF, so either SYSENTER
* or the next instruction traps at CPL0. (Of course, Intel
* mostly forgot to document exactly what happens here.) So we
* get a CPL0 fault with usergs (on 64-bit kernels) and possibly
* no stack. The only sane way the kernel can possibly handle
* it is to clear TF on return from the #DB handler, but this
* happens way too early to set TF in the saved pt_regs, so the
* kernel has to do something clever to avoid losing track of
* the TF bit.
*
* Needless to say, we've had bugs in this area.
