Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mn10300: remove irqsave pgd_lock locking
a79e53d8: x86/mm: Fix pgd_lock deadlock dropped irqsave locking to fix a
deadlock. pgd_lock is not used from an irq context so we can drop
irqsave locking here as well.
The original patch was x86 only but the same applies here because both
pgd_ctor (aka mm_alloc_pgd) and pgd_dtor (aka mm_free_pgd) are not used
from an interrupt contexts.
