Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] x86, mpx: Fixes for 3.19

Andi Lutomirski noticed that the current 3.19 code doesn't support 32-bit binaries on 64-bit kernels, but that it is not explicitly disabled.

I've also noticed a small performance regression that MPX was causing in some circumstances. The fix is simple.
