This achieves essentially the same effect as prepare_to_copy() in
arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c, except that we don't end up with fp,
altivec and/or spe enabled - but that's OK since the following code
doesn't actually need fp/altivec/spe.
It would be good to avoid this duplication, or at least to use the
flush_* calls instead of the enable_kernel_* calls.
Paul.
