 Modified Files:
 	src/sys/arch/powerpc/powerpc [netbsd-7]: locore_subr.S
 
 Log Message:
 Pull up following revision(s) (requested by phx in ticket #1382):
 	sys/arch/powerpc/powerpc/locore_subr.S: revision 1.55
 in cpu_switchto() and the fast-softint context switch code,
 put back the stwcx. instruction to clear the reservation.
 we used to have this in the old cpu_switch() until it was
 if-0'd in 2003 and removed completely in 2007.
 this fixes hangs I've seen where a softint thread is
 blocked waiting for a mutex that is not held.
 this should also fix PR 44387.
