powerpc: hugetlb: fix huge_ptep_set_access_flags return value
There was an unconditional return of "1" in the original code from David Gibson, and I dropped it because it wasn't needed for FSL BOOKE 32-bit. However, not all systems (including 64-bit FSL BOOKE) do loading of the hpte from the fault handler asm and depend on this function returning 1, which causes a call to update_mmu_cache() that writes an entry into the tlb.
