powerpc/64s: add pte_needs_flush and huge_pmd_needs_flush
Allow PTE changes to avoid flushing the TLB when access permissions are
being relaxed, the dirty bit is being set, and the accessed bit is being
changed.
Relaxing access permissions and setting dirty and accessed bits do not
require a flush because the MMU will re-load the PTE and notice the
updates (it may also cause a spurious fault).
Clearing the accessed bit does not require a flush because of the
imprecise PTE accessed bit accounting that is already performed, as
documented in ptep_clear_flush_young().
This reduces TLB flushing for some mprotect(2) calls.
