Nicholas Piggin 4c2de74cc8 powerpc/64: Interrupts save PPR on stack rather than thread_struct
PPR is the odd register out when it comes to interrupt handling, it is
saved in current->thread.ppr while all others are saved on the stack.

The difficulty with this is that accessing thread.ppr can cause a SLB
fault, but the SLB fault handler implementation in C change had
assumed the normal exception entry handlers would not cause an SLB
fault.

Fix this by allocating room in the interrupt stack to save PPR.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
