KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Radix page fault handler optimizations This improves the handling of transparent huge pages in the radix hypervisor page fault handler. Previously, if a small page is faulted in to a 2MB region of guest physical space, that means that there is a page table pointer at the PMD level, which could never be replaced by a leaf (2MB) PMD entry. This adds the code to clear the PMD, invlidate the page walk cache and free the page table page in this situation, so that the leaf PMD entry can be created. This also adds code to check whether a PMD or PTE being inserted is the same as is already there (because of a race with another CPU that faulted on the same page) and if so, we don't replace the existing entry, meaning that we don't invalidate the PTE or PMD and do a TLB invalidation.
