[PATCH v6 21/39] powerpc/mce: ensure machine check handler always tests RI

A machine check that is handled must still check MSR[RI] for
recoverability of the interrupted context. Without this patch
it's possible for a handled machine check to return to a
context where it has clobbered live registers.
