Will Deacon a449ffaf91 powerpc/svm: Don't issue ultracalls if !mem_encrypt_active()
Commit ad6c002831 ("swiotlb: Free tbl memory in swiotlb_exit()")
introduced a set_memory_encrypted() call to swiotlb_exit() so that the
buffer pages are returned to an encrypted state prior to being freed.

Sachin reports that this leads to the following crash on a Power server:

[    0.010799] software IO TLB: tearing down default memory pool
[    0.010805] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[    0.010808] kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/kernel/interrupt.c:98!

Nick spotted that this is because set_memory_encrypted() is issuing an
ultracall which doesn't exist for the processor, and should therefore
be gated by mem_encrypt_active() to mirror the x86 implementation.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
