Some interrupt handlers have an "extra" that saves 1 or 2
registers (r14, r15) in the paca save area and makes them available to
use by the handler.
The change to always save nvgprs in exception handlers lead to some
interrupt handlers saving those scratch r14 / r15 registers into the
interrupt frame's GPR saves, which get restored on interrupt exit.
Fix this by always reloading those scratch registers from paca before
the EXCEPTION_COMMON that saves nvgprs.

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.
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.
