    powerpc/powermac: Fix low_sleep_handler with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK

    low_sleep_handler() can't restore the context from standard
    stack because the stack can hardly be accessed with MMU OFF.

    Store everything in a global storage area instead of storing
    a pointer to the stack in that global storage area.

    To avoid a complete churn of the function, still use r1 as
    the pointer to the storage area during restore.

    Fixes: cd08f109e262 ("powerpc/32s: Enable CONFIG_VMAP_STACK")
