[PATCH] i386: pte xchg optimization

Browse Source 
In situations where page table updates need only be made locally, and there is
no cross-processor A/D bit races involved, we need not use the heavyweight
xchg instruction to atomically fetch and clear page table entries.  Instead,
we can just read and clear them directly.

This introduces a neat optimization for non-SMP kernels; drop the atomic xchg
operations from page table updates.

Thanks to Michel Lespinasse for noting this potential optimization.
