[RFC PATCH] powerpc/mm/mce: Keep irq disabled during lockless page table walk

__find_linux_mm_pte return a page table entry pointer walking the
page table without holding locks. To make it safe against a THP
split and collapse, we disable interrupts around the lockless
page table walk. We need to keep the interrupts disabled as long
as we use the page table entry pointer.
