c0e07c9f2c powerpc/mm/slice: Enhance for supporting PPC32
commit db3a528db4 upstream.

In preparation for the following patch which will fix an issue on
the 8xx by re-using the 'slices', this patch enhances the
'slices' implementation to support 32 bits CPUs.

On PPC32, the address space is limited to 4Gbytes, hence only the low
slices will be used.

The high slices use bitmaps. As bitmap functions are not prepared to
handle bitmaps of size 0, this patch ensures that bitmap functions
are called only when SLICE_NUM_HIGH is not nul.

59f125ad95 powerpc/mm/slice: create header files dedicated to slices
commit a3286f05bc upstream.

In preparation for the following patch which will enhance 'slices'
for supporting PPC32 in order to fix an issue on hugepages on 8xx,
this patch takes out of page*.h all bits related to 'slices' and put
them into newly created slice.h header files.
While common parts go into asm/slice.h, subarch specific
parts go into respective books3s/64/slice.c and nohash/64/slice.c
'slices'
