Subject: [PATCH 1/2] kernel/cpu: add arch override for clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() mm handling

powerpc keeps a counter in the mm which counts bits set in mm_cpumask as
well as other things. This means it can't use generic code to clear bits
out of the mask and doesn't adjust the arch specific counter.

Add an arch override allowing powerpc to use clear_tasks_mm_cpumask().
