powerpc/powernv: Use kernel crash path for machine checks

There are quite a few machine check exceptions that can be caused by
kernel bugs. To make debugging easier, use the kernel crash path in
cases of synchronous machine checks that occur in kernel mode, if that
would not result in the machine going straight to panic or crash dump.

There is a downside here that die()ing the process in kernel mode can
still leave the system unstable. panic_on_oops will always force the
system to fail-stop, so systems where that behaviour is important will
still do the right thing.

As a test, when triggering an i-side 0111b error (ifetch from foreign
address) in kernel mode process context on POWER9, the kernel currently
dies quickly like this:

  Severe Machine check interrupt [Not recovered]
    NIP [ffff000000000000]: 0xffff000000000000
    Initiator: CPU
    Error type: Real address [Instruction fetch (foreign)]

  Call Trace:

  Trying to free IRQ 496 from IRQ context!

After this patch, the process is killed and the kernel continues with
this message, which gives enough information to identify the offending
branch (i.e., with CFAR):
