This patch is a port of the task isolation functionality to the arm 32-bit
architecture. The task isolation needs an additional thread flag that
requires to change the entry assembly code to accept a bitfield larger than
one byte.  The constants _TIF_SYSCALL_WORK and _TIF_WORK_MASK are now
defined in the literal pool. The rest of the patch is straightforward and
reflects what is done on other architectures.

Thanks!  I've merged this into the dataplane tree and will plan to try
to keep it updated (buildable at least) with any further changes.
