Patch for Pavel against 2.6.13-rc3-mm3 (after removal of the TIF_FREEZE
patch). The same patch was posted yesterday against 2.6.13-rc3. I verified
again that this patch works fine on i386.

Allow notifier to remove itself.
This is done by retrieving the pointer to the next notifier from the list
before the
notifier call.
