[PATCH v2 resend 01/12] x86: add context tag to mark mm when running a task in 32-bit compatibility mode

From: Stephen Wilson
Date: Wed Mar 23 2011 - 10:45:31 EST


This tag is intended to mirror the thread info TIF_IA32 flag. Will be used to
identify mm's which support 32 bit tasks running in compatibility mode without
requiring a reference to the task itself.
