powerpc/vas: Drop poll_window_cast_out().

Polling for window cast out is listed in the spec, but turns out that
it is not strictly necessary and slows down window close. Making it a
stub for now.

* Have the hardware cast a window out of cache and wait for it to
* be completed.
*
* NOTE: It can take a relatively long time to cast the window context
* out of the cache. It is not strictly necessary to cast out if:
*
* - we clear the "Pin Window" bit (so hardware is free to evict)
*
* - we re-initialize the window context when it is reassigned.
*
* We do the former in vas_win_close() and latter in vas_win_open().
* So, ignoring the cast-out for now. We can add it as needed. If
* casting out becomes necessary we should consider offloading the
* job to a worker thread, so the window close can proceed quickly.
