MIPS: smp-cps: use CPC core-other locking
The core which the CPC core-other region relates to is based upon the core-local core-other addressing register. As its name suggests this register is shared between all VPEs within a core, and if there is a possibility that multiple VPEs within a core will attempt to access another core simultaneously then locking is required. This wasn't previously a problem with the only user being cpu0 during boot, but will be an issue once hotplug is implemented & may race with other users such as cpuidle.
