  powerpc/mm: Use the correct pointer when setting a 2MB pte (2017-01-30 15:35:13 +1100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
powerpc fixes for 4.10 #3

The main change is we're reverting the initial stack protector support we
merged this cycle. It turns out to not work on toolchains built with libc
support, and fixing it will be need to wait for another release.

And the rest are all fairly minor:
 - Some pasemi machines were not booting due to a missing error check in
   prom_find_boot_cpu().
 - In EEH we were checking a pointer rather than the bool it pointed to.
 - The clang build was broken by a BUILD_BUG_ON() we added.
 - The radix (Power9 only) version of map_kernel_page() was broken if our
   memory size was a multiple of 2MB, which it generally isn't.

Thanks to:
  Darren Stevens, Gavin Shan, Reza Arbab.
