KVM: PPC: Enable use of secondary htab bucket

We had code to make use of the secondary htab buckets, but kept that
disabled because it was unstable when I put it in.

I checked again if that's still the case and apparently it was only
exposing some instability that was there anyways before. I haven't
seen any badness related to usage of secondary htab entries so far.

This should speed up guest memory allocations by quite a bit, because
we now have more space to put PTEs in.
