[RFC] powerpc/mm: Enable TLB flush during native_register_proc_table()

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

Any changes to the partition table must be followed by appropriate TLB
flush which is not happening at present in native_register_proc_table()
path. Fix this by calling mmu_partition_table_set_entry() which does
take care of TLB flushing after the partition table update.

- From code inspection
- Compile, boot tested without CONFIG_PPC_RADIX_MMU
- Though it seems to be not getting called from any where
