The pte lock is never acquired from an IRQ-off region so it does not
require the interrupts to be disabled.
RT complains here because the spinlock_t must not be acquired with
disabled interrupts.

use_temporary_mm() expects interrupts to be off because it invokes
switch_mm_irqs_off() and uses per-CPU (current active mm) data.

Move local_irq_save() after the the pte lock has been acquired. Move
local_irq_restore() after the pte lock has been released.
