Michael Ellerman cadae3a45d powerpc/pseries: Fix dtl_access_lock to be a rw_semaphore 
The dtl_access_lock needs to be a rw_sempahore, a sleeping lock, because
the code calls kmalloc() while holding it, which can sleep:

  # echo 1 > /proc/powerpc/vcpudispatch_stats
  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/sched/mm.h:337
  in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 199, name: sh
  preempt_count: 1, expected: 0

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
