[PATCH] powerpc/603: Really copy kernel PGD entries into all PGDIRs

Commit 82ef440f9a38 ("powerpc/603: Copy kernel PGD entries into all
PGDIRs and preallocate execmem page tables") was supposed to extend
to powerpc 603 the copy of kernel PGD entries into all PGDIRs
implemented in a previous patch on the 8xx. But 603 is book3s/32 and
uses a duplicate of pgd_alloc() defined in another header.

So really do the copy at the correct place for the 603.

Fixes: 82ef440f9a38 ("powerpc/603: Copy kernel PGD entries into all PGDIRs and preallocate execmem page tables")
