powerpc/booke64: Eemove mfspr srr1 duplicate in exception prolog
Refactor exception prolog to get rid of mfspr srr1 duplicate. This was introduced by KVM integration, with DO_KVM macro logic expecting srr1 value earlier in r11. Reserve r11 to hold srr1's value also required at the end of the prolog and free up r10 to serve as spare in addition macros. For syscalls case this change does not add any performance penalty. For irq soft-disabled case the change adds a store/load of conditional register value to/from a paca slot. Paca slots fit in one 64-byte cache line so these additional operations have little impact on performance.
