powerpc/book3s: Fix machine check handling for unhandled errors



Current code does not check for unhandled/unrecovered errors and return from
interrupt if it is recoverable exception which in-turn triggers same machine
check exception in a loop causing hypervisor to be unresponsive.

This patch fixes this situation and forces hypervisor to panic for
unhandled/unrecovered errors.

This patch also fixes another issue where unrecoverable_exception routine
was called in real mode in case of unrecoverable exception (MSR_RI = 0).
This causes another exception vector 0x300 (data access) during system crash
leading to confusion while debugging cause of the system crash.

Also turn ME bit off while going down, so that when another MCE is hit during
panic path, system will checkstop and hypervisor will get restarted cleanly
by SP.

With the above fixes we now throw correct console messages (see below) while
crashing the system in case of unhandled/unrecoverable machine checks.
