The semi-recent changes to MSR handling when entering RTAS (firmware)
cause crashes on IBM Cell machines. An example trace:
kernel tried to execute user page (2fff01a8) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
BUG: Unable to handle kernel instruction fetch
Faulting instruction address: 0x2fff01a8
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

Unlike PAPR platforms where RTAS is only used in guests, on the IBM Cell
machines Linux runs with MSR[HV] set but also uses RTAS, provided by
SLOF.
Fix it by copying the MSR[HV] bit from the MSR value we've just read
using mfmsr into the value used for RTAS.
It seems like we could also fix it using an #ifdef CELL to set MSR[HV],
but that doesn't work because it's possible to build a single kernel
image that runs on both Cell native and pseries.

PAPR specifies that RTAS may be called with MSR[RI] enabled if the
calling context is recoverable, and RTAS will manage RI as necessary.
Call the rtas entry point with RI enabled, and add a check to ensure
the caller has RI enabled.

On 64-bit, PACA is saved in a SPRG so it does not need to be saved on
stack. We also don't need to mask off the top bits for real mode
addresses because the architecture does this for us.

Disable MSR[EE] in C code rather than asm.

The code was moved verbatim including whitespace cruft. Fix that.

This symbol is marked nokprobe on 32-bit but not 64-bit, add it.
