Summary

When exporting ID registers to userspace we should either adjust them
the same way for FreeBSD and Linux binaries, or export the Linux
field values to a safe value, e.g. when a needed syscall is missing.

To allow for this, and to clean up ID register handling in the kernel
move to using a bit per userspace ABI.
