Use of nmi_enter/exit in real mode handler causes the kernel to panic
and reboot on injecting slb mutihit on pseries machine running in hash
mmu mode, As these calls try to accesses memory outside RMO region in
real mode handler where translation is disabled.
Add check to not to use these calls on pseries machine running in hash
mmu mode.

accounting")
