[PATCH] i386: use thread_info flags for debug regs and IO bitmaps
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
Performance tested on Pentium II, ten runs of LMbench context switch
benchmark (smaller is better:)
