Ah indeed, fixed that.

hpa? It looks like x32 has TIF_X32, but from the kernel's POV its really
just another 64bit process, so as long as we don't trigger the TIF_IA32
case we'll just return 0.
set_personality_ia32() looks like TIF_IA32 and TIF_X32 are mutually
exclusive, so I think we do the right thing.
