[PATCH] powerpc/powernv: defer OPAL exception handler registration

Currently, the OPAL exception vectors are registered before the feature
fixups are processed. This means that the now-firmware-owned vectors
will likely be overwritten by the kernel.
This change moves the exception registration code to an early initcall,
rather than at machine_init time.
