x86/process: Re-export start_thread()

The consolidation of the start_thread() functions removed the export
unintentionally. This breaks binfmt handlers built as a module.

Add it back.

What for?  Perhaps 32-bit could remove it instead?



Came across this while writing a binfmt module. Useful for me but 
probably no one else on Earth, at least for another ~9 years on average.
