[ARM] 5440/1: Fix VFP state corruption due to preemption during VFP exceptions
We've observed that ARM VFP state can be corrupted during VFP exception
handling when PREEMPT is enabled. The exact conditions are difficult
to reproduce but appear to occur during VFP exception handling when a
task causes a VFP exception which is handled via VFP_bounce and is then
preempted by yet another task which in turn causes yet another VFP
exception. Since the VFP_bounce code is not preempt safe, VFP state then
becomes corrupt. In order to prevent preemption from occuring while
handling a VFP exception, this patch disables preemption while handling
VFP exceptions.
