ARM: 7010/1: mm: fix invalid loop for poison_init_mem
poison_init_mem() used a loop of: while ((count = count - 4)) which has 2 problems - an off by one error so that we do one less word than we should, and the other is that if count == 0 then we loop forever and poison too much. On a platform with HAVE_TCM=y but nothing in the TCM's, this caused corruption and the platform failed to boot.
