selftests/rseq: x86-32: use %gs segment selector for accessing rseq thread area

Rather than use rseq_get_abi() and pass its result through a register to
the inline assembler, directly access the per-thread rseq area through a
memory reference combining the %gs segment selector, the constant offset
of the field in struct rseq, and the rseq_offset value (in a register).
