Now that I've seen is_ia32_task(), it appears to be exactly the same as above:
(1)  If we're x86_32, it's ia32
(2)  If we're x86_64, ia32 == !!(status & TS_COMPAT)
(3)  Otherwise, it's x86_64, including x32

Am I missing something? Should is_ia32_task(void) take a task_struct?
Right now, I don't see any reason to change the code, as posted, but
maybe I am mis-reading?
is_compat_task() is true for x32, is_ia32_task() is false.
