[PATCH CPA] [11/28] CPA: Change 32bit back to init_mm semaphore locking

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Thu Jan 03 2008 - 10:26:20 EST



Now that debug pagealloc uses a separate function it is better
to change standard change_page_attr back to init_mm semaphore locking like 64bit.
Various things are simpler when sleeping is allowed.
