x86: Make is_64bit_mm() widely available

Browse source

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.
