[PATCH] arm: Preserve TPIDRURW on context switch

[André Hentschel]

There are more and more applications coming to WinRT, Wine could support them,
but mostly they expect to have the thread environment block (TEB) in TPIDRURW.
This register must be preserved per thread instead of being cleared.

This patch is against 0944c0a03465718909ba8e800a5230528aeabafb

I could only test it with kernel 3.4.6
