[PATCH 3/3] powerpc: use NMI IPI for smp_send_stop

[Nicholas Piggin]

Use the NMI IPI rather than smp_call_function for smp_send_stop.
Have stopped CPUs hard disable interrupts rather than just soft
disable.

This function is used in crash/panic/shutdown paths to bring other
CPUs down as quickly and reliably as possible, and minimizing their
potential to cause trouble.

Avoiding the Linux smp_call_function infrastructure and (if supported)
using true NMI IPIs makes this more robust.

Also use spin loop primitives in the stop callback, mainly to help
processing speed of the active thread speed in the simulator.
