powerpc: Fix bug causing FP registers corruption on UP + preempt
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This fixes a bug noticed by Paolo Galtieri and fixed for ARCH=ppc in
the previous commit (ppc: fix floating point register corruption).
This fixes the arch/powerpc code by adding preempt_disable/enable,
and also cleans it up a bit by pulling out the code that discards
any lazily-switched CPU register state into a new function, rather
than having that code repeated in three places.
