[PATCH] lock PTE before updating it in 440/BookE page fault handler
Fix 44x and BookE page fault handler to correctly lock PTE before trying to pte_update() it, otherwise this PTE might be swapped out after pte_present() check but before pte_uptdate() call, resulting in corrupted PTE. This can happen with enabled preemption and low memory condition. Signed-off-by: Eugene Surovegin <ebs@ebshome.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
