x86: Load __USER_DS into DS/ES after resume
Srinivas Pandruvada reported a problem with system resume from suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 systems where the DS register of the CPU is set to __KERNEL_DS instead of __USER_DS on return to user space which cases a General Protection Fault to occur. The issue is that DS is set to __KERNEL_DS by the ACPI resume code path while the SYSEXIT path never reloads DS/ES. It assumes they are still __USER_DS set at the SYSENTER time (Brian Gerst), so if the return to user space happens to be through SYSEXIT, it will lead to the reported GPF. Fix the problem by setting the DS and ES registers to __USER_DS as expected by the SYSEXIT path.
