powerpc/64s: Fix POWER9 machine check handler from stop state

The ISA specifies power save wakeup due to a machine check exception can
cause a machine check interrupt (rather than the usual system reset
interrupt).

The machine check handler copes with this by doing low level machine
check recovery without restoring full state from idle, then queues up a
machine check event for logging, then directly executes the same idle
instruction it woke from. This minimises the work done before recovery
is performed.

The problem is that it requires machine specific instructions and
knowledge of the book3s idle code. Currently it only has code to handle
POWER8 idle, so POWER9 crashes when trying to execute the P8 idle
instructions which don't exist in ISAv3.0B.

Instead of going to sleep after recovery, do the usual idle wakeup and
state restoration by calling into the normal idle wakeup path. This
reuses the normal idle wakeup paths.
