flush_cache_mm() fetches %sr3 via mtsp(3). If it matches mm->context,
it flushes caches and the TLB. However, the TLB is cpu-local, so if the
code gets preempted shortly after the mtsp(), and later resumed on another
CPU, the wrong TLB is flushed.

I noticed that flush_cache_range() has the same problem. Helge, let me
know whether i should send a v2 with an additional patch, or a single
follow up patch. Both functions also look very similar, so i think
best would be to combine the code of these two functions.

I'm fine with either option.

Thanks for your patches!
