Yap, here's the final version I have here and yes, it boots fine as

Subject: [PATCH] x86/startup_64: Simplify global variable accesses in GDT/IDT
programming
There are two code paths in the startup code to program an IDT: one that
runs from the 1:1 mapping and one that runs from the virtual kernel
mapping. Currently, these are strictly separate because fixup_pointer()
is used on the 1:1 path, which will produce the wrong value when used
while executing from the virtual kernel mapping.
Switch to RIP_REL_REF() so that the two code paths can be merged. Also,
move the GDT and IDT descriptors to the stack so that they can be
referenced directly, rather than via RIP_REL_REF().
Rename startup_64_setup_env() to startup_64_setup_gdt_idt() while at it,
to make the call from assembler self-documenting.
