  Log:
  Explicitly switch to the new TSS by updating the current CPU's TSS selector
  and reloading it in i386_extend_pcb() rather than trying to force a context
  switch to reload the TSS via the TDF_NEEDRESCHED flag.  Optimizations to
  avoid calling cpu_switch() when the new thread was identical to the old
  thread defeated the attempt to force a TSS reload.  Explicitly loading the
  new TSS is what we really want to do anyway.
