This patch adds support for ARCH=x86 into checkstack.

Commit ffee0de4 ("x86: Default to ARCH=x86 to avoid overriding
CONFIG_64BIT") had merged ARCH=i386 and ARCH=x86_64 into one ARCH=x86.
checkstack.pl searches patterns of machine instructions which are
usually used for allocating stack frames.  checkstalk.pl needs either
i386 or x86_64, x86 isn't enough:

  $ make checkstack
  objdump -d vmlinux $(find . -name '*.ko') | \
  perl linux/scripts/checkstack.pl x86
  wrong or unknown architecture "x86"
