Subject: [PATCH] E500 Make steal_context SMP-safe.

When steal_context is used on SMP systems, it can steal a context in
use by one of the other processors. This patch adds context tracking to
prevent this as suggested by BenH.

Note: This is a proof-of-concept patch. This isn't my area of expertise,
so I'd greatly appreciate any guidance I can get. I'm considering the
use of for_each_online_cpu() instead of for_each_possible_cpu() and
possibly putting the changes under a CONFIG_SMP switch to prevent unnecessary
overhead in the non-SMP case.

Thx,
Randy Vinson
