I don't think we should put a preempt_disable() in get_paca().  If we
did that then we would also have to make a put_paca() that does
preempt_enable() and add a call to put_paca() everywhere that we call
get_paca().

All we really need to do is add a preempt_disable/enable pair in
kvmppc_book3s_init_hv().
