powerpc/64s: enable MMU_LAZY_TLB_SHOOTDOWN
On a 16-socket 192-core POWER8 system, the context_switch1_threads
benchmark from will-it-scale (see earlier changelog), upstream can achieve
a rate of about 1 million context switches per second, due to contention
on the mm refcount.
64s meets the prerequisites for CONFIG_MMU_LAZY_TLB_SHOOTDOWN, so enable
the option. This increases the above benchmark to 118 million context
switches per second.
This generates 314 additional IPI interrupts on a 144 CPU system doing a
kernel compile, which is in the noise in terms of kernel cycles.
