[PATCH 08/13] powerpc/book3e: Resend doorbell exceptions to ourself

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

From: Michael Ellerman <michael at ellerman.id.au>

If we are soft disabled and receive a doorbell exception we don't process
it immediately. This means we need to check on the way out of irq restore
if there are any doorbell exceptions to process.

The problem is at that point we don't know what our regs are, and that
in turn makes xmon unhappy. To workaround the problem, instead of checking
for and processing doorbells, we check for any doorbells and if there were
any we send ourselves another.
