[RFC PATCH 6/9] powerpc: Flush SLB/TLBs if we get SLB/TLB machine check errors on power8.

From: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch handles the memory errors on power8. If we get a machine check
exception due to SLB or TLB errors, then flush SLBs/TLBs and reload SLBs to
recover.

I do not have access to power8 box, hence this patch haven't been tested
yet.
