Add powerpc-specific pte_free_defer(), to free table page via call_rcu(). pte_free_defer() will be called inside khugepaged's retract_page_tables() loop, where allocating extra memory cannot be relied upon. This precedes the generic version to avoid build breakage from incompatible pgtable_t. This is awkward because the struct page contains only one rcu_head, but that page may be shared between PTE_FRAG_NR pagetables, each wanting to use the rcu_head at the same time. But powerpc never reuses a fragment once it has been freed: so mark the page Active in pte_free_defer(), before calling pte_fragment_free() directly; and there call_rcu() to pte_free_now() when last fragment is freed and the page is PageActive.
