Nicholas Piggin 425d331462 powerpc/64s/hash: Provide arch_setup_exec() hooks for hash slice setup
This will be used by the SLB code in the next patch, but for now this
sets the slb_addr_limit to the correct size for 32-bit tasks.

This reverts commits:

This series had a few bugs, and the fixes are not all trivial. So
revert most of it for now.

Nicholas Piggin 1753dd1830 powerpc/mm/slice: Simplify and optimise slice context initialisation
The slice state of an mm gets zeroed then initialised upon exec.
This is the only caller of slice_set_user_psize now, so that can be
removed and instead implement a faster and simplified approach that
requires no locking or checking existing state.

This speeds up vfork+exec+exit performance on POWER8 by 3%.

Christophe Leroy db3a528db4 powerpc/mm/slice: Enhance for supporting PPC32
In preparation for the following patch which will fix an issue on
the 8xx by re-using the 'slices', this patch enhances the
'slices' implementation to support 32 bits CPUs.

On PPC32, the address space is limited to 4Gbytes, hence only the low
slices will be used.

The high slices use bitmaps. As bitmap functions are not prepared to
handle bitmaps of size 0, this patch ensures that bitmap functions
are called only when SLICE_NUM_HIGH is not nul.

Christophe Leroy a3286f05bc powerpc/mm/slice: create header files dedicated to slices
In preparation for the following patch which will enhance 'slices'
for supporting PPC32 in order to fix an issue on hugepages on 8xx,
this patch takes out of page*.h all bits related to 'slices' and put
them into newly created slice.h header files.
While common parts go into asm/slice.h, subarch specific
parts go into respective books3s/64/slice.c and nohash/64/slice.c
'slices'
