As I replied to patch 1, we don't even need __set_bit() but just '|='
for setting and '&' for testing.

What I meant is that we keep the personality setting in SET_PERSONALITY,
together with the existing TIF bits but just move the mm->context.flags
setting out.

I'm fine with out of line implementation, it probably helps with any
header conflicts (and it's not a fast path anyway).

As I said above, just context.flags |= MMCF_AARCH32.

Thanks.
