[Skiboot] [PATCH 04/61] p10: Workaround core recovery issue

From: Michael Neuling <mikey at neuling.org>

This works around a core recovery issue in P10. The workaround involves
the CME polling for a core recovery and performing the recovery
procedure itself.

For this to happen, the host leaves core recovery off (HID[5]) and
then masks the PC system checkstop. This patch does this.

Firmware starts skiboot with recovery already off, so we just leave it
off for longer and then mask the PC system checkstop. This makes the
window longer where a core recovery can cause an xstop but this
window is still small and can still only happens on boot.
