Subject: [PATCH] Remove unnecessary calls to kmap{,_local_page}() when
 acquiring pages using GFP_DMA32.

The GFP_DMA32 uses the DMA32 zone to satisfy the allocation
requests. Therefore, pages allocated with GFP_DMA32 cannot
come from Highmem.

Avoid using calls to kmap() / kunmap() as the kmap() is being
deprecated [1].

Avoid using calls to kmap_local_page() / kunmap_local() as the
code does not depends on the implicit disable of migration of
local mappings and is, in fact, an unnecessary overhead for
the main code [2].

Hence, use a plain page_address() directly in the
psb_mmu_alloc_pd function.
