Aneesh Kumar K.V 2c474c0350 powerpc/mm/radix: Fix kernel crash when running subpage protect test
This patch fixes the below crash by making sure we touch the subpage
protection related structures only if we know they are allocated on
the platform. With radix translation we don't allocate hash context at
all and trying to access subpage_prot_table results in:

  Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000008bdb4
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Radix MMU=Hash SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA PowerNV

We also move the subpage_prot_table with mmp_sem held to avoid race
between two parallel subpage_prot syscall.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
