ARM: pxa: fix page table corruption on resume
 
Before this patch, the following error would sometimes occur after a
resume on pxa3xx:

    /path/to/mm/memory.c:144: bad pmd 8040542e.

The problem was that a temporary page table mapping was being improperly
restored.

The PXA3xx resume code creates a temporary mapping of resume_turn_on_mmu
to avoid a prefetch abort.  The pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu code requires
that the r1 register holding the address of this mapping not be
modified, however, resume_turn_on_mmu does modify it. It is mostly
correct in that r1 receives the base table address, but it may also
get other bits in 13:0.  This results in pxa3xx_resume_after_mmu
restoring the original mapping to the wrong place, corrupting memory
and leaving the temporary mapping in place.
