[RFC/PATCH v3 4/7] ARM: ARM11 MPCore: clean_dcache_area is not preempt safe

[gdavis at mvista.com]

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

If preemption and subsequent task migration occurs during calls to
clean_dcache_area on ARM11 MPCore machines, global memory state
can become inconsistent.  To prevent inconsistent memory state on
these machines, disable preemption in callers of these functions
around memory modifications and subsequent clean_dcache_area calls.
