[RESEND][PATCH] powerpc/powernv : Save/Restore SPRG3 on entry/exit from stop.

From: "Gautham R. Shenoy" <ego at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

On 64-bit servers, SPRN_SPRG3 and its userspace read-only mirror
SPRN_USPRG3 are used as userspace VDSO write and read registers
respectively.

SPRN_SPRG3 is lost when we enter stop4 and above, and is currently not
restored.  As a result, any read from SPRN_USPRG3 returns zero on an
exit from stop4 and above.

Thus in this situation, on POWER9, any call from sched_getcpu() always
returns zero, as on powerpc, we call __kernel_getcpu() which relies
upon SPRN_USPRG3 to report the CPU and NUMA node information.

Fix this by saving the SPRN_SPRG3 before entering a deep stop state,
and restoring it back on wakeup from the stop state.

Fixes: e1c1cfed5432 ("powerpc/powernv: Save/Restore additional SPRs
for stop4 cpuidle")
