x86: make x86_32 use tlb_64.c
Impact: less contention when issuing invalidate IPI, cleanup
Make x86_32 use the same tlb code as 64bit. The 64bit code uses
multiple IPI vectors for tlb shootdown to reduce contention. This
patch makes x86_32 allocate the same 8 IPIs as x86_64 and share the
code paths.
Note that the usage of asmlinkage is inconsistent for x86_32 and 64
and calls for further cleanup. This has been noted with a FIXME
comment in tlb_64.c.
