Subject: [PATCH v7 6/7] powerpc/mm: implement set_memory_attr()

From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@....fr>

In addition to the set_memory_xx() functions which allows to change
the memory attributes of not (yet) used memory regions, implement a
set_memory_attr() function to:
- set the final memory protection after init on currently used
kernel regions.
- enable/disable kernel memory regions in the scope of DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.

Unlike the set_memory_xx() which can act in three step as the regions
are unused, this function must modify 'on the fly' as the kernel is
executing from them. At the moment only PPC32 will use it and changing
page attributes on the fly is not an issue.
