Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: compat: Implement is_compat_task.

This is merely a build fix required after
5b1017404aea6d2e552e991b3fd814d839e9cd67 was applied.  MIPS doesn't have
the issue that was fixed for x86-64 by that patch.

This also doesn't solve the N32 issue which is that N32 seccomp processes
will be treated as non-compat processes thus only have access to N64
syscalls.
