Nicholas Piggin 830fd2d45a powerpc/mm/slice: pass pointers to struct slice_mask where possible 
Pass around const pointers to struct slice_mask where possible, rather
than copies of slice_mask, to reduce stack and call overhead.

checkstack.pl gives, before:
0x00000d1c slice_get_unmapped_area [slice.o]:		592
0x00001864 is_hugepage_only_range [slice.o]:		448
0x00000754 slice_find_area_topdown [slice.o]:		400
0x00000484 slice_find_area_bottomup.isra.1 [slice.o]:	272
0x000017b4 slice_set_range_psize [slice.o]:		224
0x00000a4c slice_find_area [slice.o]:			128
0x00000160 slice_check_fit [slice.o]:			112

after:
0x00000ad0 slice_get_unmapped_area [slice.o]:		448
0x00001464 is_hugepage_only_range [slice.o]:		288
0x000006c0 slice_find_area [slice.o]:			144
0x0000016c slice_check_fit [slice.o]:			128
0x00000528 slice_find_area_bottomup.isra.2 [slice.o]:	128
0x000013e4 slice_set_range_psize [slice.o]:		128

This increases vfork+exec+exit performance by 1.5%.

Reduces time to mmap+munmap a 64kB page by 17%.
