But to understand why things have been working nevertheless it would have been nice if the commit message wasn't empty, but instead said something like "The two happen to be identical on 64-bit."
Why do you think they are identical? __KERNEL_CS points to entry#12 (which we don't specify in PVH GDT) while __BOOT_CS is the second entry (which we do create).
That's 32-bit's __KERNEL_CS. If the two weren't identical, the ljmp you adjust would never have worked afaict.
