Subject: [PATCH 5/8] powerpc: kill mfvtb()

This function is only used by get_vtb(). They are almost the same
except the reading from the real register. Move the mfspr() to
get_vtb() and kill the function mfvtb(). With this, we can eliminate
the use of cpu_has_feature() in very core header file like reg.h.
This is a preparation for the use of jump label for cpu_has_feature().
