[PATCH] powerpc: Add write barrier before enabling DTL flags

[Jeremy Kerr]

Currently, we don't enforce any ordering for updates to the lppaca
when enabling dtl logging, so we may end up enabling logging before the
index fields have been established.

This change adds a smp_wmb() before doing the actual enable.
