Subject: [PATCH v8 11/20] powerpc/mm: fix a warning when a cache is common to
 PGD and hugepages

While implementing TLB miss HW assistance on the 8xx, the following
warning was encountered:

[  423.735757] ---[ end trace e9b222919a470790 ]---

This warning occurs when calling kmem_cache_zalloc() on a
cache having a constructor.

In this case it happens because PGD cache and 512k hugepte cache are
the same size (4k). While a cache with constructor is created for
the PGD, hugepages create cache without constructor and uses
kmem_cache_zalloc(). As both expect a cache with the same size,
the hugepages reuse the cache created for PGD, hence the conflict.

In order to avoid this conflict, this patch:
- modifies pgtable_cache_add() so that a zeroising constructor is
added for any cache size.
- replaces calls to kmem_cache_zalloc() by kmem_cache_alloc()
