[PATCH] Suppress split ptlock on arches which may use one page for multiple page tables
Suppress split ptlock on arches which may use one page for multiple page tables. Reconsider what better to do (particularly on ppc64) later on. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
