[PATCH kernel v3 16/22] powerpc/powernv: Add purge cache OPAL call

Flushing caches using the dcbf instruction takes quite some time if we
need to flush gigabytes (16GB takes more than 15s); OPAL just added
a big hammer to flush all caches.

This adds opal_purge_cache() which will be used later to flush caches
for coherent GPU memory which might suddenly become unavailable if a GPU
is reset and NVLink is not (re)trained.
