powerpc/64s/radix: optimise pte_update Implementing pte_update with pte_xchg (which uses cmpxchg) is inefficient. A single larx/stcx. works fine, no need for the less efficient cmpxchg sequence. Then remove the memory barriers from the operation. There is a requirement for TLB flushing to load mm_cpumask after the store that reduces pte permissions, which is moved into the TLB flush code.
