[PATCH] powerpc/hugetlb: Fix 8M hugepages on 8xx

Commit 55c8fc3f4930 ("powerpc/8xx: reintroduce 16K pages with HW
assistance") redefined pte_t as a struct of 4 pte_basic_t, because
in 16K pages mode there are four identical entries in the page table.
But hugepd entries for 8k pages require only one entrie of size
pte_basic_t. So there is no point in creating a cache for 4 entries
page tables.

Also, with HW assistance the entries must be 4k aligned, the 8xx
drops the last 12 bits. Redefine HUGEPD_SHIFT_MASK to mask them out.

Calculate PTE_T_ORDER using the size of pte_basic_t instead of pte_t.

In 16k mode, define a specific set_huge_pte_at() function which writes
the pte in a single entry instead of using set_pte_at() which writes
4 identical entries. Define set_pte_filter() inline otherwise GCC
doesn't inline it anymore because it is now used twice, and that gives
a pretty suboptimal code because of pte_t being a struct of 4 entries.
This function is also used for 512k pages which only require one entry
as well allthough replicating it four times is harmless as 512k pages
entries are spread every 128 bytes in the table.
