PATCH 1/1 trivial - remove unused field

This patch removes the unused v86mode field from the thread_struct. It was tested against 2.4.19-pre8-ac5, and I also verified that 2.5.17 did compile with this patch.

This field appears to be unused in all 2.4 and 2.5 kernels.

This patch removes the unused v86mode field from the thread_struct. It was tested against 2.4.19-pre8-ac5, and I also verified that 2.5.17 did compile with this patch.

Here is a version of the patch that applies cleanly to 2.5.18:
