[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 2/3] x86: fsp: Load GDT before calling FspInitEntry

[Bin Meng]

Currently the FSP execution environment GDT is setup by U-Boot in
arch/x86/cpu/start16.S, which works pretty well. But if we try to
move the FspInitEntry call a little bit later to better fit into
U-Boot's initialization sequence, FSP will fail to bring up the AP
due to #GP fault as AP's GDT is duplicated from BSP whose GDT is
now moved into CAR, and unfortunately FSP calls AP initialization
after it disables the CAR. So basically the BSP's GDT still refers
to the one in the CAR, whose content is no longer available, so
when AP starts up and loads its segment register, it blows up.

To resolve this, we load GDT before calling into FspInitEntry.
The GDT is the same one used in arch/x86/cpu/start16.S, which is
in the ROM and exists forever.

Changes in v2:
- Use CONFIG_RESET_SEG_START to avoid duplication
