[RFC PATCH 09/11] powerpc/svm: Use shared memory for LPPACA structures

[Thiago Jung Bauermann]

From: Anshuman Khandual <khandual at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

LPPACA structures need to be shared with the host. Hence they need to be on
shared memory. Instead of allocating individual chunks of memory for given
structure from memblock, a contiguous chunk of memory is allocated and then
converted into shared memory. Subsequent allocation requests will come from
the contiguous chunk which will be always shared memory for all structures.

While we were able to use a kmem_cache constructor for the Debug Trace Log,
LPPACAs are allocated very early in the boot process (before SLUB is
available) so we need to use a simpler scheme here.
