[patch] i386: use thread_info flags for debug regs and IO bitmaps

[Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com>]

From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>

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
