Before SLUB initialization, various subsystems used memblock_alloc to
allocate memory. In most cases, when memory allocation fails, an
immediate panic is required. To simplify this behavior and reduce
repetitive checks, introduce `memblock_alloc_or_panic`. This function
ensures that memory allocation failures result in a panic automatically,
improving code readability and consistency across subsystems that require
this behavior.

Since commit 555904d07e ("powerpc/8xx: MM_SLICE is not needed
anymore") only book3s/64 selects CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES.
Move slice.c into mm/book3s64/
Move necessary stuff in asm/book3s/64/slice.h and
remove asm/slice.h

On booke/40x we don't have segments like book3s/32.
On booke/40x we don't have access protection groups like 8xx.
Use the PID register to provide user access protection.
Kernel address space can be accessed with any PID.
User address space has to be accessed with the PID of the user.
User PID is always not null.
Everytime the kernel is entered, set PID register to 0 and
restore PID register when returning to user.
Everytime kernel needs to access user data, PID is restored
for the access.
In TLB miss handlers, check the PID and bail out to data storage
exception when PID is 0 and accessed address is in user space.
Note that also forbids execution of user text by kernel except
when user access is unlocked. But this shouldn't be a problem
as the kernel is not supposed to ever run user text.
This patch prepares the infrastructure but the real activation of KUAP
is done by following patches for each processor type one by one.

DEBUG_CLAMP_LAST_CONTEXT was there in the old days to reduce
number of contexts in order to ease debugging implementation
of context switching, but that's been quite stable during
years now.
As it is not user selectable, remove it.
