powerpc/64s/hash: Fix fork() with 512TB process address space
Hash unconditionally resets the addr_limit to default (128TB) when the mm context is initialised. If a process has > 128TB mappings when it forks, the child will not get the 512TB addr_limit, so accesses to valid > 128TB mappings will fail in the child. Fix this by only resetting the addr_limit to default if it was 0. Non zero indicates it was duplicated from the parent (0 means exec()).
