[patch] mmu_context_init needs to run earlier

[Nathan Lynch]

Hi-

I am seeing "kernel BUG in mmu_context_init at arch/ppc64/mm/init.c:528"
in latest 2.6 bk kernels.  It looks as if arch_initcall is not early
enough for mmu_context_init -- I inserted printk's in that function and
init_new_context, and indeed, init_new_context is being called before
mmu_context_init.

Not sure this is the best fix, or that this completely eliminates the
races, but I didn't see any other obvious solution.  Boot-tested on a
p630.
