x86: share more options between 32 and 64 bit build
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
On recommendation from Andi Kleen share a few more options
between 32 and 64 bit builds.
A defconfig build for i386 did not show any difference in
size of text and data.

The additional shared options are:
-Wno-sign-compare
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables
-mno-sse
-mno-mmx
-mno-sse2
-mno-3dnow
