Historically, IDT entries from usermode have always gone directly
to the running task's kernel stack.  Rearrange it so that we enter on
a per-CPU trampoline stack and then manually switch to the task's stack.
This touches a couple of extra cachelines, but it gives us a chance
to run some code before we touch the kernel stack.

The asm isn't exactly beautiful, but I think that fully refactoring
it can wait.
