Why do we have 2 dummy definitions for is_a32_compat_task()? Could we
not squash them into one with different #ifdefs?

I think I tried something similar in the past and while it works most of
the time, you can easily get into an #include mess since now elf.h needs
compat.h. Similarly for other header files where you've changed this.

Can we not just keep TIF_32BIT for limiting the address space to 32-bit
and use another bit for AArch32 applications?
