Like it is done for SET_PERSONALITY with x86, which requires the ELF header to select correct personality parameters, x86 requires the headers on compat_start_thread() to choose starting CS for ELF32 binaries, instead of relying on the going-away TIF_IA32/X32 flags. Add an indirection macro to ELF invocations of START_THREAD, that x86 can reimplement to receive the extra parameter just for ELF files. This requires no changes to other architectures who don't need the header information, they can continue to use the original start_thread for ELF and non-ELF binaries, and it prevents affecting non-ELF code paths for x86.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
