[RFC PATCH 01/14] sparc64: placeholder for needed mmu shared context patching

[Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@oracle.com>]

MMU shared context patching will be supported on Sun4V platforms with
Niagara 2 or later processors.  There will be a need for kernel patching
based on this criteria.  This 'patch' simply adds a comment as a reminder
and placeholder to add that support.

For now, MMU shared context support will be determined at follows:
- sun4v patching will be used for shared context support.  This is too
  general as most but not all sun4v platforms contain the required
  processors.
- A new config option (CONFIG_SHARED_MMU_CTX) is added
