Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/64s/radix: Fix exit lazy tlb mm switch with irqs
 enabled

Switching mm and tinkering with current->active_mm should be done with
irqs disabled. There is a path where exit_lazy_flush_tlb can be called
with irqs enabled:

    exit_lazy_flush_tlb
    flush_type_needed
    __flush_all_mm
    tlb_finish_mmu
    exit_mmap

Which results in the switching being done with irqs enabled, which is
incorrect.
