Subject: [PATCH V6 4/4] powerpc/mm/hash: Don't memset pgd table if not needed

From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2018 15:34:50 +0530

We need to zero-out pgd table only if we share the slab cache with
pud/pmd level caches. With the support of 4PB, we don't share the slab
cache anymore. Instead of removing the code completely hide it within
an #ifdef. We don't need to do this with any other page table level,
because they all allocate table of double the size and we take of
initializing the first half corrrectly during page table zap.
