[PATCH v2 resend 02/12] x86: mark associated mm when running a task in 32 bit compatibility mode

[Stephen Wilson]

This patch simply follows the same practice as for setting the TIF_IA32 flag.
In particular, an mm is marked as holding 32-bit tasks when a 32-bit binary is
exec'ed.  Both ELF and a.out formats are updated.
