x86/insn-eval: Fix use-after-free access to LDT entry
get_desc() computes a pointer into the LDT while holding a lock that protects the LDT from being freed, but then drops the lock and returns the (now potentially dangling) pointer to its caller. Fix it by giving the caller a copy of the LDT entry instead.
