Commit 69e3cea8d5fd526 introduced start_secondary_resume to misc_32.S,
however it uses a 64-bit instruction which is not valid on 32-bit
platforms.  Use 'stw' instead.

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree.  Please read Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt
for how to do this properly.

The function is in a different place in 2.6.39 anyways. I'll do a proper
backport when Linus merges this one.

Cheers,

Sigh.  I know that.  My fault for rushing it and not thinking.
