[PATCH 1/4] powerpc/powernv: handle the platform error reboot in ppc_md.restart

Unrecovered MCE and HMI errors are sent through a special restart
OPAL call to log the platform error. The downside is that they don't
go through normal crash paths, so they don't give much information
to the Linux console.
Change this by allowing them to set an error which then causes the
normal restart handler to use the platform error call. Have MCE and HMI
handlers set this and then use the normal panic path for unrecoverable
cases.
