Ryan Roberts eb61ad14c4 sparc/mm: avoid calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() in set_ptes 
With commit 1a10a44dfc ("sparc64: implement the new page table range
API") set_ptes was added to the sparc architecture.  The implementation
included calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() calls.

The patch removes the usage of arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() since this
implies nesting of lazy mmu regions which is not supported.  Without this
fix, lazy mmu mode is effectively disabled because we exit the mode after
the first set_ptes:

remap_pte_range()
  -> arch_enter_lazy_mmu()
  -> set_ptes()
      -> arch_enter_lazy_mmu()
      -> arch_leave_lazy_mmu()
  -> arch_leave_lazy_mmu()

Powerpc suffered the same problem and fixed it in a corresponding way with
commit 47b8def935 ("powerpc/mm: Avoid calling
arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() in set_ptes").

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.
