[PATCH] powerpc/64: set DSCR default initially from SPR

Take the DSCR value set by firmware as the dscr_default value,
rather than zero.
POWER9 recommends DSCR default to a non-zero value.
From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin at gmail.com>

This has a problem that OS which set the DSCR to non-default
then kexec to Linux will be used as our default. I send a
corresponding patch to skiboot which resets SPRs in opal_reinit_cpus
which will make this do the right thing in that case.
