This version seems a bit over-engineered. Making a kvmppc_hv_unlock_hpte() is not such a bad idea, though I would make it identical to the existing unlock_hpte() from book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c, just in a header. I'm really not convinced about putting the preempt_disable/enable inside the lock/unlock functions, with the consequent need to pass in a 'vmode' parameter, given that there is just one caller that needs to do the preempt_disable/enable.
