Hi David,
Small question: ptep_lockptr() does not handle the case where the size
of the PTE table is larger than PAGE_SIZE, but pmd_lockptr() does.
IIUC, for pte_lockptr() and ptep_lockptr() to return the same result
in this case, ptep_lockptr() should be doing the masking that
pmd_lockptr() is doing. Are you sure that you don't need to be doing
it? (Or maybe I am misunderstanding something.)
Thanks for the fix!
