mainlining shenanigans

When CONFIG_PPC_RFI_SRR_DEBUG=y we check the SRR values before returning
from interrupts. This is done in asm using EMIT_BUG_ENTRY, and passing
BUGFLAG_WARNING.
However that fails to create an exception table entry for the warning,
and so do_program_check() fails the exception table search and proceeds
to call _exception(), resulting in an oops like:
Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1]
LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Radix SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries

We should instead use EMIT_WARN_ENTRY, which creates an exception table
entry for the warning, allowing the warning to be correctly recognised,
and the code to resume after printing the warning.
Note however that because this warning is buried deep in the interrupt
return path, we are not able to recover from it (due to MSR_RI being
clear), so we still end up in die() with an unrecoverable exception.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
