powerpc/8xx: remove tests on PGDIR entry validity Kernel MMU handling code handles validity of entries via _PMD_PRESENT which corresponds to V bit in MD_TWC and MI_TWC. When the V bit is not set, MPC8xx triggers TLBError exception. So we don't have to check that and branch ourself to TLBError. We can set TLB entries with non present entries, remove all those tests and let the 8xx handle it. This reduce the number of cycle when the entries are valid which is the case most of the time, and doesn't significantly increase the time for handling invalid entries.
