Hi folks,

This series of patches reworks the sparc32 page-table layout so that
'pmd_t' no longer embeds an array of 16 physical pointers, which means
that we can finally enforce atomicity for accesses made using READ_ONCE():

I've tested this with QEMU by booting Debian Etch. Please take a look!

Cheers,

Will
