TLB dropins require updates to the CBR instruction istatus field. This is
needed to resolve race conditions in the chip.
The code currently uses the user address of the CBR. This works but opens
up additional endcases related to stealing of contexts and accessing the
CBR from tasks that do not have access to the user address space. (Some
of this non-user task access is debug code that is not currently being
pushed to the community).
User CBRs are also directly accessible using the kernel mapping of the
CBR. Change the TLB dropin code to use the the kernel mapping of the CBR.

Fix potential SGI GRU bug that could cause a use-after-free. If one
thread in a task is flushing the GRU and another thread destroys the GRU
context, there is the potential to access a table after it has been freed.
Copy the gms pointer to a local variable before unlocking the gts table.
Note that no refcnt is needed for the gms - the reference is held
indirectly by the task's mm_struct.

Fix two problems related to GRU instruction failures. Cache coherency is
not maintained for CBEs except when loading or unloading contexts. When
reading a CBE to extract error information, the CBE must first be flushed
from the cache.
The function that reads kerrnel CBEs was reading the wrong CBE.

- fix long lines
- eliminate extra whitespace
- eliminate compiler warning
- better validation of invalidate user parameters
- bug fix for GRU TLB flush (not the cpu TLB flush)
These changes are all internal to the SGI GRU driver and have no effect
on the base kernel.
