Subject: [v6][PATCH 5/5] powerpc/book3e/kgdb: Fix a single stgep case of lazy IRQ

In lazy EE magic, we may have a lazy interrupt occured while
entering kgdb, but we really don't want to replay that interrupt
for kgdb, so we have to clear the PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS force to
make sure we can exit directly from this debug exception.
