x86 vDSO: ia32 sysenter_return
This changes the 64-bit kernel's support for the 32-bit sysenter instruction to use stored fields rather than constants for the user-mode return address, as the 32-bit kernel does. This adds a sysenter_return field to struct thread_info, as 32-bit has. There is no observable effect from this yet. It makes the assembly code independent of the 32-bit vDSO mapping address, paving the way for making the vDSO address vary as it does on the 32-bit kernel.
