powerpc/mm: Fix attribute confusion with htab_bolt_mapping()
The function htab_bolt_mapping() is used to create permanent mappings in the MMU hash table, for example, in order to create the linear mapping of vmemmap. It's also used by early boot ioremap (before mem_init_done). However, the way ioremap uses it is incorrect as it passes it the protection flags in the "linux PTE" form while htab_bolt_mapping() expects them in the hash table format. This is made more confusing by the fact that some of those flags are actually in the same position in both cases. This fixes it all by making htab_bolt_mapping() take normal linux protection flags instead, and use a little helper to convert them to htab flags. Callers can now use the usual PAGE_* definitions safely.
