Subject: [PATCH 1/6] CRISv32: don't enable irqs in INIT_THREAD

INIT_THREAD enables interrupts in the thread_struct's saved flags.  This
means that interrupts get enabled in the middle of context_switch()
while switching to new tasks that get forked off the init task during
boot.  Don't do this.

Fixes the following splat on boot with spinlock debugging on:

  BUG: spinlock cpu recursion on CPU#0, swapper/2
   lock: runqueues+0x0/0x47c, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: swapper/0,
  .owner_cpu: 0
  CPU: 0 PID: 2 Comm: swapper Not tainted 3.19.0-08796-ga747b55 #285
