[PATCH v8 4/4] powerpc/mm/iommu: Allow large IOMMU page size only for hugetlb backing

THP pages can get split during different code paths. An incremented reference
count does imply we will not split the compound page. But the pmd entry can be
converted to level 4 pte entries. Keep the code simpler by allowing large
IOMMU page size only if the guest ram is backed by hugetlb pages.
