x86/purgatory: Use approprate -m64/-32 build flag for arch/x86/purgatory
PATCH 1/1 x86/purgatory: Use approprate -m64/-32 build flag for arch/x86/purgatory
Thomas reported that build of x86_64 kernel was failing for him. He is using 32bit tool chain.
Problem is that while compiling purgatory, I have not specified -m64 flag. And 32bit tool chain must be assuming -m32 by default.
Following is error message.

Fix it by explicitly passing appropriate -m64/-m32 build flag for purgatory.
