[PATCH] powerpc: Only do ERAT invalidate on radix context switch on P9 DD1

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

From: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org>

On P9 (Nimbus) DD2 and later, in radix mode, the move to the PID
register will implicitly invalidate the user space ERAT entries
and leave the kernel ones alone. Thus the only thing needed is
an isync() to synchronize this with subsequent uaccess's

Applied to powerpc next, thanks.
