[PATCH v2 4/4] powerpc/tm: Do not recheckpoint non-tm task

[Breno Leitao]

If __switch_to() tries to context switch from task A to task B, and task A
 had task->thread->regs->msr[TM] enabled, then __switch_to_tm() will call
tm_recheckpoint_new_task(), which will call trecheckpoint, for task B, which
 is clearly wrong since task B might not be an active TM user.

This does not cause a lot of damage because tm_recheckpoint() will abort
the call since it realize that the current task does not have msr[TM] bit
set.
