If set_thread_tidr() is called twice for same task_struct then it will
allocate a new tidr value to it leaving the previous value still
dangling in the vas_thread_ida table.

To fix this the patch changes set_thread_tidr() to check if a tidr
value is already assigned to the task_struct and if yes then returns
zero.
