Subject[PATCH v6 03/11] powerpc/mm: Adds arch-specificic functions to track lockless pgtable walks
Date
On powerpc, we need to do some lockless pagetable walks from functions
that already have disabled interrupts, specially from real mode with
MSR[EE=0].

In these contexts, disabling/enabling interrupts can be very troubling.

So, this arch-specific implementation features functions with an extra
argument that allows interrupt enable/disable to be skipped:
__begin_lockless_pgtbl_walk() and __end_lockless_pgtbl_walk().

Functions similar to the generic ones are also exported, by calling
the above functions with parameter {en,dis}able_irq = true.
