MIPS: c-r4k: Fix valid ASID optimisation
Several cache operations are optimised to return early from the SMP call handler if the memory map in question has no valid ASID on the current CPU, or any online CPU in the case of MIPS_MT_SMP. The idea is that if a memory map has never been used on a CPU it shouldn't have cache lines in need of flushing. However this doesn't cover all cases when ASIDs for other CPUs need to be checked: - Offline VPEs may have recently been online and brought lines into the (shared) cache, so they should also be checked, rather than only online CPUs. - SMP systems with a Coherence Manager (CM), but with MT disabled still have globalized hit cache ops, but don't use SMP calls, so all present CPUs should be taken into account. - R6 systems have a different multithreading implementation, so MIPS_MT_SMP won't be set, but as above may still have a CM which globalizes hit cache ops. Additionally for non-globalized cache operations where an SMP call to a single VPE in each foreign core is used, it is not necessary to check every CPU in the system, only sibling CPUs sharing the same first level cache. Fix this by making has_valid_asid() take a cache op type argument like r4k_on_each_cpu(), so it can determine whether r4k_on_each_cpu() will have done SMP calls to other cores. It can then determine which set of CPUs to check the ASIDs of based on that, excluding foreign CPUs if an SMP call will have been performed.
