[PATCH 5/8] lazy tlb: allow lazy tlb mm switching to be configurable

[Nicholas Piggin]

NOMMU systems could easily go without this and save a bit of code
and the refcount atomics, because their mm switch is a no-op. I
haven't flipped them over because haven't audited all arch code to
convert over to using the _lazy_tlb refcounting.
