powerpc/non-smp: Unconditionaly call smp_mb() on switch_mm

Commit 321f5da583d4 ("powerpc, membarrier: Skip memory barrier in
switch_mm()") added some logic to skip the smp_mb() in
switch_mm_irqs_off() before the call to switch_mmu_context().

However, on non SMP smp_mb() is just a compiler barrier and doing
it unconditionaly is simpler than the logic used to check whether the
barrier is needed or not.

After the patch:
