From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt benh@kernel.crashing.org

commit aff6f8cb3e2170b9e58b0932bce7bfb492775e23 upstream.

Currently, when using coprocessors (which use the Nest MMU), we simply increment the active_cpu count to force all TLB invalidations to be come broadcast.

Unfortunately, due to an errata in POWER9, we will need to know more specifically that coprocessors are in use.

This maintains a separate copros counter in the MMU context for that purpose.

NB. The commit mentioned in the fixes tag below is not at fault for the bug we're fixing in this commit and the next, but this fix applies on top the infrastructure it introduced.
