3.13.11-ckt19 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andreas Larsson <andreas@gaisler.com>

[ Upstream commit 66d0f7ec9f1038452178b1993fc07fd96d30fd38 ]

Load balancing can be triggered in the critical sections protected by
srmmu_context_spinlock in destroy_context() and switch_mm() and can hang
the cpu waiting for the rq lock of another cpu that in turn has called
switch_mm hangning on srmmu_context_spinlock leading to deadlock.

So, disable interrupt while taking srmmu_context_spinlock in
destroy_context() and switch_mm() so we don't deadlock.

See also commit 77b838fa1ef0 ("[SPARC64]: destroy_context() needs to disable
interrupts.")
