[PATCH] spufs: Improved SPU preemptability.
This patch makes it easier to preempt an SPU context by
having the scheduler hold ctx->state_sema for much shorter
periods of time.
As part of this restructuring, the control logic for the "run"
operation is moved from arch/ppc64/kernel/spu_base.c to
fs/spufs/file.c. Of course the base retains "bottom half"
handlers for class{0,1} irqs. The new run loop will re-acquire
an SPU if preempted.
