    x86/IDT: Fix IDT generation for INT $0x80
    
    When PV is enabled, entry_int80 needs to be DPL3, not DPL0.
    
    This, combined with a QEMU bug which incorrectly calculates the error
    code (fix submitted separately), causes the XSA-259 PoC to fail with:
    
      --- Xen Test Framework ---
      Environment: PV 64bit (Long mode 4 levels)
      XSA-259 PoC
      Error: Unexpected fault 0x800d0802, #GP[IDT[256]]
      Test result: ERROR
    
    Fixes: 3da2149cf4dc ("x86/IDT: Generate bsp_idt[] at build time")
