[PATCH v2 1/1] MIPS: Octeon: fix for held reboot_mutex lock at task exit time

[Wladislav Wiebe <wladislav.kw@gmail.com>]

When kernel halt's will reboot_mutex lock still hold at exit.
It will issue with 'halt' command:
$ halt
..
Sent SIGKILL to all processes
Requesting system halt
[66.729373] System halted.

[66.750202] -------------------------------------
[66.754913] init/21479 is exiting with locks still held!
[66.760234] 1 lock held by init/21479:

With this commit we will still have a proper halt sequence
and the reboot_mutex held bug is gone: (added printk's to affected functions)
$ halt
..
ent SIGKILL to all processes

In this case on a 6 Core Cavium Octeon board.
