I seem to recall hearing about an undocumented instruction in
protected mode x86 processors called LOADALL, or something like
that.  Does anyone have any technical information on this?  I
would be interested in the following details in particular:

	* opcode value(s)
	* precise effects
	* inverse operation (i.e. SAVEALL?)

Thanks,
