Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/pseries: Machine check use rtas_call_unlocked() with
 args on stack

References: bsc#1094244 ltc#168122
Patch-mainline: v5.8-rc1
Git-commit: 2576f5f9169620bf329cf1e91086e6041b98e4b2

With the previous patch, machine checks can use rtas_call_unlocked()
which avoids the RTAS spinlock which would deadlock if a machine
check hits while making an RTAS call.

This also avoids the complex RTAS error logging which has more RTAS
calls and includes kmalloc (which can return memory beyond RMA, which
would also crash).
