Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 4/6] ARM: Remove __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW on ASID-capable CPUs

Since the ASIDs must be unique to an mm across all the CPUs in a system,
the __new_context() function needs to broadcast a context reset event to
all the CPUs during ASID allocation if a roll-over occurred. Such IPIs
cannot be issued with interrupts disabled and ARM had to define
__ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW.

This patch changes the check_context() function to
check_and_switch_context() called from switch_mm(). In case of
ASID-capable CPUs (ARMv6 onwards), if a new ASID is needed and the
interrupts are disabled, it defers the __new_context() and
cpu_switch_mm() calls to the post-lock switch hook where the interrupts
are enabled. Setting the reserved TTBR0 was also moved to
check_and_switch_context() from cpu_v7_switch_mm().
