Now the preemption imbalance via pte_alloc_map() path i.e

pte_alloc_map() -> pte_offset_map() -> kmap_atomic()

Is not this very much powerpc 32 specific or this will be applicable
for all platform which uses kmap_XXX() to map high memory ?

See

I think it applies at least to all arches using the generic implementation.

Applies also to arm:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.3-rc8/source/arch/arm/mm/highmem.c#L52

Applies also to mips:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.3-rc8/source/arch/mips/mm/highmem.c#L47

Same on sparc:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.3-rc8/source/arch/sparc/mm/highmem.c#L52 


Same on x86:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.3-rc8/source/arch/x86/mm/highmem_32.c#L34 


I have not checked others, but I guess it is like that for all.

Seems like I answered too quickly. All kmap_atomic() do 
preempt_disable(), but not all pte_alloc_map() call kmap_atomic().

However, for instance ARM does:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.3-rc8/source/arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h#L200

And X86 as well:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.3-rc8/source/arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable_32.h#L51

Microblaze also:
