x86: Fix rflags in FAKE_STACK_FRAME
The x86_64 kernel pushes the fake kernel stack in
arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:FAKE_STACK_FRAME, and
rflags register in it does not conform to the specification.
Although Intel's manual[1] says bit 1 of it shall be set to 1,
this bit is cleared to 0 on pushing the fake stack.
[1] Intel(R) 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual
Vol.1 3-21 Figure 3-8. EFLAGS Register
If it is not on purpose, it is better to be fixed, because
it can lead some tools misunderstanding the stack frame. For example,
"crash" utility[2] actually detects it and warns you like
below:
RIP: ffffffff8005dfa2 RSP: ffff8104ce0c7f58 RFLAGS: 00000200
[...]
