[PATCH 13/13] powerpc/64s: idle ESL=0 stop can avoid all save/restore overhead

When stop is executed with EC=ESL=0, it appears to execute like a
normal instruction (resuming from NIP when woken by interrupt).
So all the save/restore handling can be avoided completely. In
particular NV GPRs do not have to be saved, and MSR does not have
to be switched back to kernel MSR.
So move the test for "lite" sleep states out to power9_idle_stop.
