x86: Fix broken LDT access in VMI


After investigating a JRE failure, I found this bug was introduced a
long time ago, and had already managed to survive another bugfix which
occurred on the same line.  The result is a total failure of the JRE due
to LDT selectors not working properly.

This one took a long time to rear up because LDT usage is not very
common, but the bug is quite serious.  It got introduced along with
another bug, already fixed, by 75b8bb3e
