Use kmap_high and kmap_XXX or kumap_xxx among differt cores at the same
time may cause deadlock. The issue is like this:
CPU 0: CPU 1:
kmap_high(){ kmap_xxx() {
... irq_disable();
spin_lock(&kmap_lock)
...
map_new_virtual ...
flush_all_zero_pkmaps
flush_tlb_kernel_range /* CPU0 holds the kmap_lock */
smp_call_function_many spin_lock(&kmap_lock)
... ....
spin_unlock(&kmap_lock)
...
CPU 0 holds the kmap_lock, waiting for CPU 1 respond to IPI. But CPU 1
has disabled irqs, waiting for kmap_lock, cannot answer the IPI. Fix
this by releasing kmap_lock before call flush_tlb_kernel_range,
avoid kmap_lock deadlock.

should this be a raw spin_unlock(), or should it be unlock_kmap()?
ie when ARCH_NEEDS_KMAP_HIGH_GET is set, do we also need to re-enable
interrupts here?

Thanks! Using lock_map/unlock_kmap is better.
Patch V2 will be sent.
