[PATCH v2] mm: Fix use_mm() vs TLB invalidate

[Peter Zijlstra]

For SMP systems using IPI based TLB invalidation, looking at
current->active_mm is entirely reasonable. This then presents the
following race condition:


  CPU0			CPU1

  flush_tlb_mm(mm)	use_mm(mm)
    <send-IPI>
			  tsk->active_mm = mm;
			  <IPI>
			    if (tsk->active_mm == mm)
			      // flush TLBs
			  </IPI>
			  switch_mm(old_mm,mm,tsk);


Where it is possible the IPI flushed the TLBs for @old_mm, not @mm,
because the IPI lands before we actually switched.

Avoid this by disabling IRQs across changing ->active_mm and
switch_mm().

[ There are all sorts of reasons this might be harmless for various
architecture specific reasons, but best not leave the door open at
all. ]
