[PATCH 1/3] KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: HV: Add helpers for lock/unlock hpte

This patch adds helper routine for lock and unlock hpte and use the same for rest of the code. We don't change any locking rules in this patch. In the next patch we switch some of the unlock usage to use the api with barrier and also document the usage without barriers. Signed-off-by: Aneesh
