linuxboot: fix gdt address calculation
The gdt address calculation in linuxboot.bin is broken in two ways: first it loads %cs into %eax, but that instruction leaves the high bits of %eax undefined and we did not clear them. Secondly, we completely ignore the incorrect %eax, and use the undefined %ebx instead. With these issues fixed, linuxboot works again.
