[Cbe-oss-dev] [PATCH 3/3] spufs context switch - fix interrupt routing

Fix routining of spu interrupts.

Interrupt routing must be programmed when mfc queue is in a quiescent state, 
either empty or stopped with no pending interrupts.  Otherwise, multiple
cpus could be interrupted for a given spu.  This is problematic for several
reasons.  The state of the mfc queue, the dma restart, needs to be performed
after virtual memory operations take place.  There is nothing to prevent 
concurrent exception handling in the slih and the thread level.  Also,
there is only one set of fields for dealing with exceptions in the csa, so
you could have exception data being over-written while it is being processed.
Many things could go wrong.
