x86/alternatives: Acquire pte lock with interrupts enabled
pte lock is never acquired in-IRQ context so it does not require interrupts to be disabled. The lock is a regular spinlock which cannot be acquired with interrupts disabled on RT. RT complains about pte_lock() in __text_poke() because it's invoked after disabling interrupts. __text_poke() has to disable interrupts as use_temporary_mm() expects interrupts to be off because it invokes switch_mm_irqs_off() and uses per-CPU (current active mm) data. Move the PTE lock handling outside the interrupt disabled region.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
