powerpc: System reset avoid interleaving oops using die synchronisation
The die() oops path contains a serializing lock to prevent oops messages from being interleaved. In the case of a system reset initiated oops (e.g., qemu nmi command), __die was being called which lacks that synchronisation and oops reports could be interleaved across CPUs. A recent patch 4388c9b3a6ee7 ("powerpc: Do not send system reset request through the oops path") changed this to __die to avoid the debugger() call, but there is no real harm to calling it twice if the first time fell through. So go back to using die() here. This was observed to fix the problem.
