Subject: [PATCH 6/6] ppc,
 book3s: Go back to same idle state after handling machine check
 interrupt

From: Srivatsa S. Bhat <srivatsa.bhat@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Now that the support for fast sleep is present, threads could have woken up
from fast sleep on getting a machine check interrupt. Hence add code to allow
threads to go back to the idle state they woke up from after handling the
interrupt. Today they go back to nap by default.
