x86-64: merge the standard and compat start_thread() functions
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The only thing left that differs between the standard and compat
start_thread functions is the actual segment numbers and the
prototype, so have a single common function which contains the guts
and two very small wrappers.
