[PATCH v3] powerpc/ppc64: Use preempt_schedule_irq instead of preempt_schedule

Yeah well, it is supposed to reflect EE in the "general case", it's just
that in the exception entry/exit, we take shortcuts when turning EE off
for short amount of times without reflecting it in the PACA. This is
why, in this case, since we are going back to C code, I want to have it
"fixed up" to reflect reality.

Cheers,
Ben.
