Subject[patch] i386: use thread_info flags for debug regs and IO bitmaps
From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>

Use thread info flags to track use of debug registers and IO bitmaps.

- add TIF_DEBUG to track when debug registers are active
- add TIF_IO_BITMAP to track when I/O bitmap is used
- modify __switch_to() to use the new TIF flags

I didn't see this patch get merged anywhere. Can you merge it, Andrew?
It's independent of the x86_64 version that Andi has merged in his tree.
