The fs segment is only used to get the global data pointer.
If it is accessed beyond sizeof(new_gd->arch.gd_addr), it is a bug.

To specify the byte-granule limit size, drop the G bit, so the
flag field is 0x8093 instead of 0xc093, and set the limit field
to sizeof(new_gd->arch.gd_addr) - 1.

nits: this comment should be updated too
