[PATCH 7/7] powerpc/64/kdump: Use ppc_save_regs() in crash_setup_regs()

The patch replaces internal registers dump implementation with
ppc_save_regs(). From now on PPC64 and PPC32 are using the same
code for crash_setup_regs().

NOTE: The old regs dump implementation was capturing SP (r1) directly
as is, so you could see crash_kexec() function on top of the back-trace.
But ppc_save_regs() goes up one stack frame, so you'll not see it
anymore, at the top-level you'll see who actually triggered the crash
dump instead.

p.s.
The patch is the last in the series, so you can easily drop it
until somebody actually test it (I don't have any PPC64 machine,
so I'm looking for volunteers. :-)
