Ah, I see. There are a few options, the easiest of which is to leave the B
bit clear in both descriptors. I'm not certain whether that actually matters
for any reason, but I think for our purposes it does not.
If Jan can counter my claim, then you can instead switch back to the
non-compat GDT for the LTR, or you can decide which descriptor to set B in
based on which GDT you're running on, or force the B bit in both descriptors
after the LTR, or... You have a few options. :-)
