spapr: Correctly set LPCR[GTSE] in H_REGISTER_PROCESS_TABLE
176dccee "target/ppc/spapr: Clear partition table entry when allocating hash table" reworked the H_REGISTER_PROCESS_TABLE hypercall, but unfortunately due to a small error no longer correctly sets the LPCR[GTSE] bit which allows the guest to directly execute (some types of) tlbie (TLB flush) instructions without involving the hypervisor. We got away with this, initially, because POWER9 did not have hypervisor mode enabled in its msr_mask, which meant we didn't actually run hypervisor privilege checks in TCG at all. However, da874d90 "target/ppc: add HV support for POWER9" turned on HV support on POWER9 for the benefit of the powernv machine type. This exposed the earlier bug in H_REGISTER_PROCESS_TABLE, and causes guests which rely on LPCR[GTSE] (i.e. basically all of them) to crash during early boot when their first tlbie instruction causes an unexpected trap.
