x86: Fix text_poke_smp_batch() deadlock
Fix this deadlock - we are already holding the mutex:
=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.38-rc4-test+ #1
-------------------------------------------------------
bash/1850 is trying to acquire lock:
(text_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8100a9c1>] return_to_handler+0x0/0x2f
but task is already holding lock:
(smp_alt){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff8100a9c1>] return_to_handler+0x0/0x2f
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
