Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] powerpc/8xx: use _PAGE_RO instead of _PAGE_RW

On powerpc 8xx, in TLB entries, 0x400 bit is set to 1 for read-only pages
and is set to 0 for RW pages. So we should use _PAGE_RO instead of _PAGE_RW

Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@....fr>

v2 is a complete rework compared to v1
v3: fixing pte_update() and comments
