we can leave those few items in arch/x86 just as much. No need to keep
around a legacy tree for that.

how about making all files ans directories take _32 or _64 in the name?
except the files or dir that are shared.

for example: k8_bus.c is only need by 64 ===> change it to k8_bus_64.c
mach-generic===> mach-generic_32
