Functionally, yes.  I also changed the name of the 
arch_enter_lazy_cpu_mode() -> arch_start_context_switch() which affects 
kernel/sched.c:context_switch(), but it is just a name update (which 
also required an asm-frv update, which defines its own no-op version of 
the macro rather than using the default no-op one, for some reason).
