[PATCH] powerpc: Fix accumulate_stolen_time() vs. CONFIG_PREEMPT

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

The function accumulate_stolen_time() is called on pSeries to scan
the hypervisor event log every now and then. This happens very early
during the exception entry process, while the PACA soft/hard_enabled
fields don't properly reflect the state of the system, which is
basically hard irq disabled.

This causes various debug checks to trigger when CONFIG_PREEMPT is
enabled which can themselves cause the machine to crash due to the
unexpected context they are called from.

We fix that by temporarily setting the PACA fields to reflect the
hard disabled state in accumulate_stolen_time(). This keeps the
overhead to that function, hopefully called rarely and only on
those pSeries machines.
