Glauber de Oliveira Costa 9d1c6e7c86 x86: use descriptor's functions instead of inline assembly
This patch provides a new set of functions for managing the descriptor
tables that can be used instead of putting the raw assembly in .c files.

Remodeling of store_tr() suggested by Frederik Deweerdt.

Instead of using magic macros for boot_params access, simply use the
boot_params structure.

Dave Jones 835c34a168 Delete filenames in comments.
Since the x86 merge, lots of files that referenced their own filenames
are no longer correct.  Rather than keep them up to date, just delete
them, as they add no real value.

Additionally:
- fix up comment formatting in scx200_32.c
- Remove a credit from myself in setup_64.c from a time when we had no SCM
- remove longwinded history from tsc_32.c which can be figured out from
  git.
