[PATCH] powerpc: unrecoverable system reset crash fix

When the system reset interrupt (0x100 trap) calls die(), it does not
exit so it returns. Unrecoverable system reset cases don't expect this,
so it continues on and ends up going BUG later.
Change the 0x100 logic in die to just avoid kexec/fadump. Then a 0
signr can be used by a caller to avoid the exit/panic, which the main
0x100 die() call can use. The unrecoverable die() calls then exit and
don't return, as expected.
Fixes: d40b6768e45b ("powerpc/64s: sreset panic if there is no debugger or crash dump handlers")
