Subject: [PATCH 3.16 05/19] MIPS: save/disable MSA in lose_fpu

3.16.43-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul Burton <paul.burton@...tec.com>

commit 33c771ba5c5d067f85a5a6c4b11047219b5b8f4e upstream.

The kernel depends upon MSA never being enabled when the FPU is not, a
condition which is currently violated in a few places (whilst saving
sigcontext, following mips_cpu_save). Catch all the problem cases by
disabling MSA in lose_fpu, after saving context if necessary.
