[v1][PATCH 1/1] ppc64: max next_tb to prevent from replaying timer interrupt

[Tiejun Chen]

With lazy interrupt, we always call __check_irq_replaysome with
decrementers_next_tb to check if we need to replay timer interrupt.
So in hotplug case we also need to set decrementers_next_tb as MAX
to make sure __check_irq_replay don't replay timer interrupt
when return as we expect, otherwise we'll trap here infinitely.

v1:

* In hotplug case we max decrementers_next_tb to prevent from
replaying timer interrupt for any offline CPU.
