ldt is never used in the kernel context; same goes for fs (x86_64) and gs
(i386).  So save/restore them in the heavyweight exit path instead
of the lightweight path.

By itself, this doesn't buy us much, but it paves the way for moving vmload
and vmsave to the heavyweight exit path, since they modify the same registers.

[jan: fix copy/pase mistake on i386]
