powerpc/powernv/ioda: Fix race in TCE level allocation
commit 56090a39 upstream. pnv_tce() returns a pointer to a TCE entry and originally a TCE table would be pre-allocated. For the default case of 2GB window the table needs only a single level and that is fine. However if more levels are requested, it is possible to get a race when 2 threads want a pointer to a TCE entry from the same page of TCEs. This adds cmpxchg to handle the race. Note that once TCE is non-zero, it cannot become zero again.
