checkpoint. booting second processor. stack is messed up, but thanks to cliff
and plan 9 code, at least boots and gets into C code.

+#### Switch from real to protected mode
+#### The descriptors in our GDT allow all physical memory to be accessed.
+#### Furthermore, the descriptors have base addresses of 0, so that the
+#### segment translation is a NOP, ie. virtual addresses are identical to
+#### their physical addresses. With this setup, immediately after
+#### enabling protected mode it will still appear to this code
+#### that it is running directly on physical memory with no translation.
+#### This initial NOP-translation setup is required by the processor
+#### to ensure that the transition to protected mode occurs smoothly.
