[MIPS] Fix deadlock on MP with cache aliases.
A proper fix would involve introducing the notion of shared caches but at this stage of 2.6.17 that's going to be too intrusive and not needed for current hardware; aside I think some discussion will be needed. So for now on the affected SMP configurations which happen to suffer from cache aliases we make use of the fact that a single cache will be shared by all processors. This solves the deadlock issue and will improve performance by getting rid of the smp_call_function overhead. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
