powerpc/64s: msgclr when handling doorbell exceptions from system reset



msgsnd doorbell exceptions are cleared when the doorbell interrupt is
taken. However if a doorbell exception causes a system reset interrupt
wake from power saving state, the message is not cleared. Processing
the doorbell from the system reset interrupt requires msgclr to avoid
taking the exception again.

Testing this plus the previous wakup direct patch gives:

                                original         wakeup direct     msgclr
Different threads, same core:   315k/s           264k/s            345k/s
Different cores:                235k/s           242k/s            242k/s

Net speedup is +10% for same core, and +3% for different core.
