powerpc/64s: system call scv tabort fix for corrupt irq soft-mask state
If a system call is made with a transaction active, the kernel immediately aborts it and returns. scv system calls disable irqs even earlier in their interrupt handler, and tabort_syscall does not fix this up. This can result in irq soft-mask state being messed up on the next kernel entry, and crashing at BUG_ON(arch_irq_disabled_regs(regs)) in the kernel exit handlers, or possibly worse. This can't easily be fixed in asm because at this point an async irq may have hit, which is soft-masked and marked pending. The pending interrupt has to be replayed before returning to userspace. The fix is to move the tabort_syscall code to C in the main syscall handler, and just skip the system call but otherwise return as usual, which will take care of the pending irqs. This also does a bunch of other things including possible signal delivery to the process, but the doomed transaction should still be aborted when it is eventually returned to. The sc system call path is changed to use the new C function as well to reduce code and path differences. This slows down how quickly system calls are aborted when called while a transaction is active, which could potentially impact TM performance. But making any system call is already bad for performance, and TM is on the way out, so go with simpler over faster.
