[PATCH v2 6/7] sparc/mm: support nested lazy_mmu sections

The lazy_mmu API now allows nested sections to be handled by arch
code: enter() can return a flag if called inside another lazy_mmu
section, so that the matching call to leave() leaves any
optimisation enabled.
This patch implements that new logic for sparc: if there is an
active batch, then enter() returns LAZY_MMU_NESTED and the matching
leave() leaves batch->active set. The preempt_{enable,disable} calls
are left untouched as they already handle nesting themselves.
TLB flushing is still done in leave() regardless of the nesting
level, as the caller may rely on it whether nesting is occurring or
not.
