[PATCH] i386-unbusy-tss cleanup

The TSS no longer needs to be unbusied before loading the task register, since
the set_tss_desc macros set the system gate type to Available IA-32 TSS.  This
obscure, uncommented legacy code can now be removed for better readability and
saves 20 bytes of code space.
