TCG works with incorrect values somehow.

TCG doesn't care about limits and has only few segment type checks.

Some link to the corresponding spec section would be nice-to-have in
this commit message. I was looking for a reference what registers SIPIs
actually modify and how, but there seems to be none, at least in the
System Programming Guide.

I already noticed that TCG implement some non existent CPU somewhat
similar to x86.

This commit just fix obvious bug that caused SIPI to put garbage into
segment's flags. I don't have link to spec only common sense.

I once posted a patch that added full limit/flags check on memory
access. But it required more work and slowed down TCG quite noticeably.
Meanwhile we are only using KVM and don't require this precision
anymore, so this effort stalled.

I don't disagree. I was just wondering if it loads the specified reset
values into the flags or just keeps them untouched. BTW, looks like
BOCHS takes your path too (ie. don't touch them).
