Running v5.13-rt1 on my arm64 Juno board triggers:

CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT turns the PTE lock into a sleepable spinlock. Since
acquiring such a lock also disables migration, any per-CPU access done
under the lock remains safe even if preemptible.

This affects:

filemap_map_pages()
`\
do_set_pte()
`\
arch_wants_old_prefaulted_pte()

which checks preemptible() to figure out if the output of
cpu_has_hw_af() (IOW the underlying CPU) will remain stable for the
subsequent operations. Make it use is_pcpu_safe() instead.
