[PATCH 12/21] mm: arches skip ptlock

[Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>]

Convert those few architectures which are calling pud_alloc, pmd_alloc,
pte_alloc_map on a user mm, not to take the page_table_lock first, nor
drop it after.  Each of these can continue to use pte_alloc_map, no need
to change over to pte_alloc_map_lock, they're neither racy nor swappable.

In the sparc64 io_remap_pfn_range, flush_tlb_range then falls outside of
the page_table_lock: that's okay, on sparc64 it's like flush_tlb_mm, and
that has always been called from outside of page_table_lock in dup_mmap.
