Subject: [PATCH] [174/223] uml: disable winch irq before freeing handler data

2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Will Newton <will.newton@...il.com>

commit 69e83dad5207f8f03c9699e57e1febb114383cb8 upstream.

Disable the winch irq early to make sure we don't take an interrupt part
way through the freeing of the handler data, resulting in a crash on
shutdown:

  winch_interrupt : read failed, errno = 9
  fd 13 is losing SIGWINCH support
