[PATCH] powerpc/book3s64/radix: Avoid WARN_ON in destroy_context

On failed task initialization due to memory allocation failures,
we can call into destroy_context with process_tb entry set. This patch
forces the process_tb entry to zero in destroy_context. With
this patch, we lose the ability to track if we are destroying a context
without flushing the process table entry.
