4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christophe Leroy <[email protected]>

commit 6b8cb66a6a7cc182b47da6a0a1d4e5da324c0695 upstream.

On some CPUs like the 8xx, _PAGE_RW hence _PAGE_WRITE is defined
as 0 and _PAGE_RO has to be set when a page is not writable

_PAGE_RO is defined by default in pte-common.h, however BOOK3S/64
doesn't include that file so _PAGE_RO has to be defined explicitly
in book3s/64/pgtable.h

Fixes: a7b9f671f2d14 ("powerpc32: adds handling of _PAGE_RO")
