[POWERPC] spufs: serialize SLB invalidation against SLB loading
There is a potential race between flushes of the entire SLB in the MFC and the point where new entries are being established. The problem is that we might put a ESID entry into the MFC SLB when the VSID entry has just been cleared by the global flush. This can be circumvented by holding the register_lock throughout both the flushing and the creation of SLB entries.
