This is based on top of: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/devel.git x86/entry It was tested by booting and running an i386 rootfs over the 64bit kernel, and also by running x32 binaries on top of it. There is one remaining use of TIF_IA32 in User Mode Linux which is turned off by a bogus define, such that I think it is currently dead code and apparently a bug. I think, it was wired to an old TIF_IA32 flag definition that doesn't exist anymore in arch/um. I think it deserves a fix other than dropping that code, but it is a different piece of work that I will tackle next.
