[PATCH] ppc64: Fix a sleeping with spinlock bug in ioremap
From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> ppc64 uses its own range allocator for ioremap (in order to allocate things in a different space than normal vmalloc). This is historic stuff, we may get rid of it, but in the meantime, here's a patch turning the spinlock in there into a semaphore so it doesn't blow up when doing kmallocs.
