target/i386: Remove dead assignment to ss in do_interrupt64()
Coverity points out that in do_interrupt64() in the "to inner privilege" codepath we set "ss = 0", but because we also set "new_stack = 1" there, later in the function we will always override that value of ss with "ss = 0 | dpl". Remove the unnecessary initialization of ss, which allows us to reduce the scope of the variable to only where it is used. Borrow a comment from helper_lcall_protected() that explains what "0 | dpl" means here.
