Subject: powerpc/64s: Allow control of RFI flush via debugfs

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

commit 236003e6b5443c45c18e613d2b0d776a9f87540e upstream.

Expose the state of the RFI flush (enabled/disabled) via debugfs, and
allow it to be enabled/disabled at runtime.

eg: $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush
    1
    $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush
    $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush
    0
