powerpc/64s/interrupt: Perf NMI should not take normal exit path
NMI interrupts should exit with EXCEPTION_RESTORE_REGS not with
interrupt_return_srr, which is what the perf NMI handler currently does.
This breaks if a PMI hits after interrupt_exit_user_prepare_main() has
switched the context tracking to user mode, then the CT_WARN_ON() in
interrupt_exit_kernel_prepare() fires because it returns to kernel with
context set to user.
This could possibly be solved by soft-disabling PMIs in the exit path,
but that reduces our ability to profile that code. The warning could be
removed, but it's potentially useful.
All other NMIs and soft-NMIs return using EXCEPTION_RESTORE_REGS, so
this makes perf interrupts consistent with that and seems like the best
fix.
