powerpc/64s: Use EMIT_WARN_ENTRY for SRR debug warnings
[ Upstream commit fd1eaaaaa6864b5fb8f99880fcefb49760b8fe4e ]
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.
