Subject: parisc/mm: Ensure IRQs are off in switch_mm()

From: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

commit 649aa24254e85bf6bd7807dd372d083707852b1f upstream.

This is because of commit f98db6013c55 ("sched/core: Add switch_mm_irqs_off()
and use it in the scheduler") in which switch_mm_irqs_off() is called by the
scheduler, vs switch_mm() which is used by use_mm().

This patch lets the parisc code mirror the x86 and powerpc code, ie. it
disables interrupts in switch_mm(), and optimises the scheduler case by
defining switch_mm_irqs_off().
