ARM: 7658/1: mm: fix race updating mm->context.id on ASID rollover

If a thread triggers an ASID rollover, other threads of the same process
must be made to wait until the mm->context.id for the shared mm_struct
has been updated to new generation and associated book-keeping (e.g.
TLB invalidation) has ben performed.

However, there is a *tiny* window where both mm->context.id and the
relevant active_asids entry are updated to the new generation, but the
TLB flush has not been performed, which could allow another thread to
return to userspace with a dirty TLB, potentially leading to data
corruption. In reality this will never occur because one CPU would need
to perform a context-switch in the time it takes another to do a couple
of atomic test/set operations but we should plug the race anyway.

This patch moves the active_asids update until after the potential TLB
flush on context-switch.
