Comments formatting is not in line with Linux kernel rules. Should be no
text on the first /* line.

I think it would be better to not use __begin_lockless_pgtbl_walk()
directly but keep it in a single place, and define something like
begin_lockless_pgtbl_walk_noirq() similar to begin_lockless_pgtbl_walk()

What's the point in changing the name of this label ? There is only one
label, why polute the function with so huge name ?
For me, everyone understand what 'bail' means. Unneccessary changes
should be avoided. If you really really want to do it, it should be
another patch.
See kernel codying style, chapter 'naming':
"LOCAL variable names should be short". This also applies to labels.
"C is a Spartan language, and so should your naming be. Unlike Modula-2
and Pascal programmers, C programmers do not use cute names like
ThisVariableIsATemporaryCounter. A C programmer would call that variable
tmp, which is much easier to write, and not the least more difficult to
understand."

Is this new line related to the patch ?
