[POWERPC] Avoid unpaired stwcx. on some processors
The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the
reservation, as recommended by the architecture. However, some processors
can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation
is already held to a different address B. To avoid this problem, the dummy
stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address.
This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate
which cpus are affected. Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in
arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc.
