PATCH v2 1/1 powerpc: Fix oops due to wrong access of lppaca on non virtualized platform

Commit 8e0b634b1327 ("powerpc/64s: Do not allocate lppaca if we are not virtualized") removed allocation of lppaca on non virtualized platform. But with CONFIG_PPC_SPLPAR enabled, we do access lppaca non-virtualized platform in some code paths.

Fix this but adding runtime check for virtualized platform.

Fixes 8e0b634b1327 ("powerpc/64s: Do not allocate lppaca if we are not virtualized")

Thanks, this looks good to me...

We should eventually clean this up. There's no need to pass in an lppaca here AFAIKS. Is it even per-CPU, does it change dynamically? We could set it up in a FW_FEATURE parameter at boot, which would could make some of these tests cheaper.
