The same commit that originally added this code also added
thumb2_execute(), which is used by the go command in a thumb2 build.

This doesn't seem necessary for the same reason as the code in
start_linux.  THUMB2 selects AEABI, which in turn turns on the aapcs
abi, which requires interworking safe indirect calls.  And again, the
bootstrap code doesn't use a special call sequence so if it didn't work
that would be broken too.

The code for thumb2_execute() is also odd in that it subtracts one from
argc, drops the 1st argv entry, and supplies zero for the first function
argument.  I.e., "go" in arm mode (and all non-arm arches) does this:
	func(argc - 1, &argv[1]);
and in thumb2 mode does this:
	func(0, argc - 2, &argv[2]);

I don't see why one would want this difference.
