[PATCH 5/8] powerpc/pseries: Introduce helpers to gatekeep DTLB usage

Since we would be introducing a new user of the DTL buffer in a
subsequent patch, add helpers to gatekeep use of the DTL buffer. The
current usage of the DTL buffer from debugfs is at a per-cpu level
(corresponding to the cpu debugfs file that is opened). Subsequently, we
will have users enabling/accessing DTLB for all online cpus. These
helpers allow any number of per-cpu users, or a single global user
exclusively.
