[PATCH] ppc32: arch code preempt fixes

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

Hi !

I figured the best way to stop beeing bothered by users trying to
run preempt was to fix it ;) Here's a first batch that close some
races we had when testing regs->msr for altivec or FPU enable, then
doing the giveup_* function. A preempt in between those would have
caused us to save a stale altivec or FPU context.

Please, apply.

Ben.
