Christophe Leroy 12f363511d powerpc/32s: Fix BATs setting with CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
Serge reported some crashes with CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled
on a book3s32 machine.

Analysis shows two issues:
  - BATs addresses and sizes are not properly aligned.
  - There is a gap between the last address covered by BATs and the
    first address covered by pages.

Memory mapped with DBATs:
0: 0xc0000000-0xc07fffff 0x00000000 Kernel RO coherent
1: 0xc0800000-0xc0bfffff 0x00800000 Kernel RO coherent
2: 0xc0c00000-0xc13fffff 0x00c00000 Kernel RW coherent
3: 0xc1400000-0xc23fffff 0x01400000 Kernel RW coherent

5: 0xc4400000-0xc83fffff 0x04400000 Kernel RW coherent
6: 0xc8400000-0xd03fffff 0x08400000 Kernel RW coherent
7: 0xd0400000-0xe03fffff 0x10400000 Kernel RW coherent

Memory mapped with pages:
0xe1000000-0xefffffff  0x21000000       240M        rw       present           dirty  accessed

This patch fixes both issues. With the patch, we get the following
which is as expected:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
