Subject: [PATCH 12/19] x86: make is_64bit_mm() widely available


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

The uprobes code has a nice helper, is_64bit_mm(), that consults both
the runtime and compile-time flags for 32-bit support.  Instead of
reinventing the wheel, pull it in to an x86 header so we can use it
for MPX.

I prefer passing the mm around to test_thread_flag(TIF_IA32) because
it makes it explicit where the context is coming from.  It will also
make it easier if we ever need to access the MPX structures from
another process.
