powerpc/603: Clear C bit when PTE is read only

Browse source 
On book3s/32 MMU, PP bits don't offer kernel RO protection,
kernel pages are always RW.

However, on the 603 a page fault is always generated when the
C bit (change bit = dirty bit) is not set.

Enforce kernel RO protection by clearing C bit in TLB miss
handler when the page doesn't have _PAGE_RW flag.
