[PATCH] ppc64: Fix semantics of __ioremap

This patch fixes ppc64 __ioremap() so that it stops adding implicitely
_PAGE_GUARDED when the cache is not writeback, and instead, let the callers
provide the flag they want here.  This allows things like framebuffers to
explicitely request a non-cacheable and non-guarded mapping which is more
efficient for that type of memory without side effects.  The patch also
fixes all current callers to add _PAGE_GUARDED except btext, which is fine
without it.
