x86: Do not dump DS/CS segment overrides for branch hints
The previous change
"x86: Ignore CS/DS/ES/SS segment-override prefixes in 64-bit mode"
to ignore segment override prefixes in 64-bit mode lead to dumping
branch hints as excessive prefixes:
ffffffff8109d5a0 <vmx_get_rflags>:
...
ffffffff8109d601: 3e 77 0a ds ja,pt ffffffff8109d60e <vmx_get_rflags+0x6e>
^^^^^
In this particular case, those prefixes are not excessive but are used
to provide branch hints - taken/not-taken - to the CPU.
Assign active_seg_prefix in that particular case to consume them.
