At elf loading in flush_old_exec() in fs/exec.c, generic code sets
current_thread_info()->addr_limit to one that corresponds aarch64 value,
and ignores compat mode there as corresponding status setup happens
later on in load_elf_binary() by SET_PERSONALITY() macro. As result,
compat task has wrong addr_limit, and it may cause various bugs.

This patch fixes it. It also fixes USER_DS macro to return different
values depending on compat at runtime.

It was discovered during ilp32 development. See details here:

It looks like that thread is ongoing, with discussion around a generic
fix and a related issue with our TLS handling:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/12/513
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/12/515

so I'm going to hold off on this until there's some agreement on the
right way forward. Whatever we end up doing, we should probably cc
stable too.

You could just use USER_DS for both of the SET_PERSONALITY macros.
