Subject: powerpc/mm: Add missing global TLB invalidate if cxl is active

From: Frederic Barrat <[email protected]>

commit 88b1bf7268f56887ca88eb09c6fb0f4fc970121a upstream.

Commit 4c6d9acce1f4 ("powerpc/mm: Add hooks for cxl") converted local TLB invalidates to global if the cxl driver is active. This is necessary because the CAPP snoops invalidations to forward them to the PSL on the cxl adapter. However one path was forgotten. native_flush_hash_range() still does local TLB invalidates, as found out the hard way recently.

This patch fixes it by following the same logic as previously: if the cxl driver is active, the local TLB invalidates are 'upgraded' to global.
