Jeremy Kerr c6730ed4c2 [POWERPC] spufs: Load isolation kernel from spu_run
In order to fit with the "don't-run-spus-outside-of-spu_run" model, this
patch starts the isolated-mode loader in spu_run, rather than
spu_create. If spu_run is passed an isolated-mode context that isn't in
isolated mode state, it will run the loader.

This fixes potential races with the isolated SPE app doing a
stop-and-signal before the PPE has called spu_run: bugzilla #29111.
Also (in conjunction with a mambo patch), this addresses #28565, as we
always set the runcntrl register when entering spu_run.

It is up to libspe to ensure that isolated-mode apps are cleaned up
after running to completion - ie, put the app through the "ISOLATE EXIT"
state (see Ch11 of the CBEA).
