The change isn't introduced by the reported commit apparently.  So
there may be some mistake in the 0-Day bisection.

I am not familiar with alpha architecture.  If the pte_t is always
defined as follows for alpha, the atomicity of the operation should be
OK?

  typedef struct { unsigned long pte; } pte_t;
