Slightly different patch - there were three revisions.  I can't attach
a tested-by given to a different patch to this one.

That means omap2plus_defconfig .38 mainline kernels
(including -stable) will remain potentially dangerous when run on
SMP capable hardware.
I must admit that this series looks a bit large for stable IMHO.  I 
think that the fix for stable should limit itself only to prevent SMP 
from being selected if anything else than CPU_32v6K is selected.
The first three are the bare minimum required for -stable.
