[PATCH v3 01/15] powerpc/64s/exception: Fix machine check no-loss idle wakeup

The architecture allows for machine check exceptions to cause idle
wakeups which resume at the 0x200 address which has to return via
the idle wakeup code, but the early machine check handler is run
first.

The case of a no state-loss sleep is broken because the early
handler uses non-volatile register r1 , which is needed for the wakeup
protocol, but it is not restored.

Fix this by loading r1 from the MCE exception frame before returning
to the idle wakeup code. Also update the comment which has become
stale since the idle rewrite in C.
