powerpc/64: allow alternate return locations for soft-masked interrupts
The exception table fixup adjusts a failed page fault's interrupt return location if it was taken at an address specified in the exception table, to a corresponding fixup handler address. Introduce a variation of that idea which adds a fixup table for NMIs and soft-masked asynchronous interrupts. This will be used to protect certain critical sections that are sensitive to being clobbered by interrupts coming in (due to using the same SPRs and/or irq soft-mask state).
