To fix this, blackfin should not grab the write_ variant of the
tasklist lock, read_ one is enough.

The patch fixes two problems:
1. Working with task->mm w/o getting mm or grabing the task lock is
dangerous as ->mm might disappear (exit_mm() assigns NULL under
task_lock(), so tasklist lock is not enough).
We can't use get_task_mm()/mmput() pair as mmput() might sleep,
so we have to take the task lock while handle its mm.
2. Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main
thread may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads
may still have a valid mm.
To catch this we use find_lock_task_mm(), which walks up all
threads and returns an appropriate task (with task lock held).

Fix the IRQ flag handling naming. In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
it maps:
local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
...
and under the other configuration, it maps:
raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
...
This is quite confusing. There should be one set of names expected of the
arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
by users of this facility.
Change this to have the arch provide:
flags = arch_local_save_flags()
flags = arch_local_irq_save()
arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
arch_local_irq_disable()
arch_local_irq_enable()
arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
arch_irqs_disabled()
arch_safe_halt()
Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:
raw_local_save_flags(flags)
raw_local_irq_save(flags)
raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
raw_local_irq_disable()
raw_local_irq_enable()
raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
raw_irqs_disabled()
raw_safe_halt()
with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:
local_save_flags(flags)
local_irq_save(flags)
local_irq_restore(flags)
local_irq_disable()
local_irq_enable()
irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
irqs_disabled()
safe_halt()
with tracing included if enabled.
The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
having to be macros.

Now that the split traps code has moved all the verbose output to the
trace.c file, we can unify all the CONFIG_DEBUG_VERBOSE handling. This
gets rid of much of the crappy ifdef forest and enables usage of normal
pr_xxx functions so checkpatch stops complaining.

The current kernel/traps.c file has grown a bit unwieldy as more debugging
functionality has been added over time, so split it up into more logical
files. There should be no functional changes here, just minor whitespace
tweaking. This should make future extensions easier to manage.
