Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] s390: mm: convert pgste locking functions to C

Convert pgste_get_lock() and pgste_set_unlock() to C.

There is no real reasons to keep them in assembler. Having them in C
makes them more readable and maintainable, and better instructions are
used automatically when available.

Would it make sense to cpu_relax() here, e.g with a follow-up patch?

No, because cpu_relax() is a no-op on our architecture (besides that it
translates to barrier(); but __atomic64_or_barrier() obviously comes also
with barrier() semantics).

We used to do diag 0x44 with cpu_relax() but that caused many performance
problems, therefore we removed diag 0x44 completely from the kernel quite
some time ago.

See also commit 1b68ac8678a8 ("s390: remove last diag 0x44 caller").

Thanks for the clarification!

Applied.
