powerpc/mm: Remove kvm radix prefetch workaround for Power9 DD2.2
Commit a25bd72b ("powerpc/mm/radix: Workaround prefetch issue with KVM") introduced a number of workarounds as coming out of a guest with the mmu enabled would make the cpu would start running in hypervisor state with the PID value from the guest. The cpu will then start prefetching for the hypervisor with that PID value. In Power9 DD2.2 the cpu behaviour was modified to fix this. When accessing Quadrant 0 in hypervisor mode with LPID != 0 prefetching will not be performed. This means that we can get rid of the workarounds for Power9 DD2.2 and later revisions. Add a new cpu feature CPU_FTR_P9_RADIX_PREFETCH_BUG to indicate if the workarounds are needed.
