powerpc/vas: Don't set uses_vas for kernel windows
cp_abort is only required for user windows, because kernel context must not be preempted between a copy/paste pair. Without this patch, the init task gets used_vas set when it runs the nx842_powernv_init initcall, which opens windows for kernel usage. used_vas is then never cleared anywhere, so it gets propagated into all other tasks. It's a property of the address space, so it should really be cleared when a new mm is created (or in dup_mmap if the mmaps are marked as VM_DONTCOPY). For now we seem to have no such driver, so leave that for another patch.
