powerpc/mm: Fix hash computation function


The ASM version of hash computation function was truncating the upper bit.
Make the ASM version similar to hpt_hash function. Remove masking vsid bits.
Without this patch, we observed hang during bootup due to not satisfying page
fault request correctly. The fault handler used wrong hash values to update
the HPTE. Hence we kept looping with page fault.

hash_page(ea=000001003e260008, access=203, trap=300 ip=3fff91787134 dsisr 42000000
The computed value of hash 000000000f22f390
update: avpnv=4003e46054003e00, hash=000000000722f390, f=80000006, psize: 2 ...

BenH: The over-masking has been there for ever but only hurts with the
new 64T support introduced in 3.7
