    sparc32: mm: Disable SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS · 60bccaa6

    The SRMMU page-table allocator is not compatible with SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS
    for two major reasons:
    
      1. Pages are allocated via memblock, and therefore the ptl is not
         cleared by prep_new_page(), which is expected by ptlock_init()
    
      2. Multiple PTE tables can exist in a single page, causing them to
         share the same ptl and deadlock when attempting to take the same
         lock twice (e.g. as part of copy_page_range()).
    
    Ensure that SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS is not selected for SPARC32.
