Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 191/218] sched/preempt, sh: kmap_coherent relies on disabled preemption

4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: David Hildenbrand <dahi@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit b15d53d009558d14c4f394a6d1fa2039c7f45c43 upstream.

kmap_coherent needs disabled preemption to not schedule in the critical
section, just like kmap_coherent on mips and kmap_atomic in general.

Fixes: 8222dbe21e79 "sched/preempt, mm/fault: Decouple preemption from the page fault logic"
