powerpc/64s/hash: Use POWER9 SLBIA IH=3 variant in switch_slb
POWER9 introduces SLBIA IH=3, which invalidates all SLB entries and associated lookaside information that have a class value of 1, which Linux assigns to user addresses. This matches what switch_slb wants, and allows a simple fast implementation that avoids the slb_cache complexity. As a side-effect, the POWER5 < DD2.1 SLB invalidation workaround is also avoided on POWER9. Process context switching rate is improved about 2.2% for a small process that hits the slb cache which is the best case for the current code.
