  entry_INT80_compat+0x38/0x50

This can be reproduced by running the GS testcase of ldt_gdt test unit in 
selftests.

do_int80_syscall_32() will call enter_form_user_mode() to convert context 
tracking state from user state to kernel state. The load_gs_index can fail 
with user gsbase, gsbase will be fixed up and proceed if this happen. 
However, enter_from_user_mode() will be called again in the fixed up path 
though it is context tracking kernel state currently. 

This patch fix it by just fixing up gsbase and telling lockdep that IRQs 
are off once load_gs_index failed with user gsbase.
