3.16.55-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
commit 9cc719ab3f4f639d629ac8ff09e9b998bc006f68 upstream.
Due to the slightly odd way that new threads and processes start execution when scheduled for the very first time they were bypassing the required disable_msa call.
