powerpc/mm/hash: Don't add memory coherence if cache inhibited is set
H_ENTER hcall handling in qemu had assumptions that a cache inhibited hpte entry won't have memory conference set. Also older kernel mentioned that some version of pHyp required this (the code removed by the below commit says: /* Make pHyp happy */ if ((rflags & _PAGE_NO_CACHE) && !(rflags & _PAGE_WRITETHRU)) hpte_r &= ~HPTE_R_M; But with older kernel we had some inconsistent memory conherence mapping. We always enabled memory conherence in the page fault path and removed memory conherence is _PAGE_NO_CACHE was set when we mapped the page via htab_bolt_mapping. The commit mentioned below tried to consolidate that by always enabling memory conherence. But as mentioned above that breaks Qemu H_ENTER handling. This patch update this such that we enable memory conherence only if cache inhibited is not set and bring fault handling, lpar and bolt mapping in sync.
