[PATCH] uml: check for differences in host support

If running on a host not supporting TLS (for instance 2.4) we should report
that cleanly to the user, instead of printing not comprehensible "error 5" for
that.

Additionally, i386 and x86_64 support different ranges for
user_desc->entry_number, and we must account for that; we couldn't pass
ourselves -1 because we need to override previously existing TLS descriptors
which glibc has possibly set, so test at startup the range to use.

x86 and x86_64 existing ranges are hardcoded.
