The allyesconfig ppc64 kernel fails to link with relocations unable to
fit after commit 3a96570ffc ("powerpc: convert interrupt handlers to
use wrappers"), which is due to the interrupt handler functions being
put into the .noinstr.text section, which the linker script places on
the opposite side of the main .text section from the interrupt entry
asm code which calls the handlers.
This results in a lot of linker stubs that overwhelm the 252-byte sized
space we allow for them, or in the case of BE a .opd relocation link
error for some reason.
It's not required to put interrupt handlers in the .noinstr section,
previously they used NOKPROBE_SYMBOL, so take them out and replace
with a NOKPROBE_SYMBOL in the wrapper macro. Remove the explicit
NOKPROBE_SYMBOL macros in the interrupt handler functions. This makes
a number of interrupt handlers nokprobe that were not prior to the
interrupt wrappers commit, but since that commit they were made
nokprobe due to being in .noinstr.text, so this fix does not change
that.
The fixes tag is different to the commit that first exposes the problem
because it is where the wrapper macros were introduced.

Saving and restoring soft-mask state can now be done in C using the
interrupt handler wrapper functions.

This moves the common NMI entry and exit code into the interrupt handler
wrappers.
This changes the behaviour of soft-NMI (watchdog) and HMI interrupts, and
also MCE interrupts on 64e, by adding missing parts of the NMI entry to
them.

The interrupt handler wrapper functions are not the ideal place to
maintain context tracking because after they return, the low level exit
code must then determine if there are interrupts to replay, or if the
task should be preempted, etc. Those paths (e.g., schedule_user) include
their own exception_enter/exit pairs to fix this up but it's a bit hacky
(see schedule_user() comments).
Ideally context tracking will go to user mode only when there are no
more interrupts or context switches or other exit processing work to
handle.
64e can not do this because it does not use the C interrupt exit code.

Previously context tracking was not done for asynchronous interrupts,
(those that run in interrupt context), and if those would cause a
reschedule when they exit, then scheduling functions (schedule_user,
preempt_schedule_irq) call exception_enter/exit to fix this up and
exit user context.
This is a hack we would like to get away from, so do context tracking
for asynchronous interrupts too.

This moves exception_enter/exit calls to wrapper functions for
synchronous interrupts. More interrupt handlers are covered by
this than previously.

Simple helper for synchronous interrupt handlers (i.e., process-context)
to enable interrupts if it was taken in an interrupts-enabled context.

Add wrapper functions (derived from x86 macros) for interrupt handler
functions. This allows interrupt entry code to be written in C.
