[PATCH] fs/ext2: Replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page()

["Fabio M. De Francesco" <fmdefrancesco@gmail.com>]

kmap_atomic() is deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). Therefore,
replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page().

kmap_atomic() is implemented like a kmap_local_page() which also disables
page-faults and preemption (the latter only for !PREEMPT_RT kernels).

However, the code within the mapping and un-mapping in ext2_make_empty()
does not depend on the above-mentioned side effects.

Therefore, a mere replacement of the old API with the new one is all it
is required (i.e., there is no need to explicitly add any calls to
pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable()).

I tried my best to understand the code within mapping and un-mapping.
However, I'm not an expert. Therefore, although I'm pretty confident, I
cannot be 100% sure that the code between the mapping and the un-mapping
does not depend on pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable().

Unfortunately, I cannot currently test this changes to check the
above-mentioned assumptions. However, if I'm required to do the tests
with (x)fstests, I have no problems with doing them in the next days.

If so, I'll test in a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with
HIGHMEM64GB enabled.

I'd like to hear whether or not the maintainers require these tests
and/or other tests.
