ARM: make_coherent: fix problems with highpte, part 1
update_mmu_cache() is called with a page table already mapped. We
call make_coherent(), which then calls adjust_pte() which wants to
map other page tables. This causes kmap_atomic() to BUG() because
the slot its trying to use is already taken.
Since do_adjust_pte() modifies the page tables, we are also missing
any form of locking, so we're risking corrupting the page tables.
Fix this by using pte_offset_map_nested(), and taking the pte page
table lock around do_adjust_pte().
