[PATCH 2/3] powerpc/32: Remove 'noltlbs' kernel parameter

[Christophe Leroy]

Mapping without large TLBs has no added value on the 8xx.

Mapping without large TLBs is still necessary on 40x when
selecting CONFIG_KFENCE or CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC or
CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX, but this is done automatically
and doesn't require user selection.

Remove 'noltlbs' kernel parameter, the user has no reason
to use it.
