[RFC/PATCH 6/7] ARM: ARM11 MPCore: DMA_CACHE_RWFO operations are not preempt safe

[gdavis at mvista.com]

From: George G. Davis <gdavis at mvista.com>

The DMA_CACHE_RWFO operations are not preempt safe.  If preemption
occurs immediately following a RWFO operation on a cache line of
CPU A, it is possible for task migration to occur on resume at
which point the subsequent cache maintenance operation on the
same cache line of CPU B will have no affect on the CPU A cache
line leading to inconsistent memory and/or cache state.  To prevent
this, disable preemption during RWFO operations.

This change depends on "ARM: Move get_thread_info macro definition
to <asm/assembler.h>".
