Jeremy Fitzhardinge's patch to clarify arg names in asm/desc.h
"a" and "b" are better named "low" and "high"; Rusty mixed them up
once with amusing results. Also change __u32 to u32 while there (this
must be kernel-only code, given the DECLARE_PER_CPU in the file
above).
Also moves set_ldt up higher in header, in preparation for paravirt.
