  powerpc/xmon: Don't print hashed pointers in xmon (2017-12-07 00:27:01 +1100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
powerpc fixes for 4.15 #4

One notable fix for kexec on Power9, where we were not clearing MMU PID properly
which sometimes leads to hangs. Finally debugged to a root cause by Nick.

A revert of a patch which tried to rework our panic handling to get more output
on the console, but inadvertently broke reporting the panic to the hypervisor,
which apparently people care about.

Then a fix for an oops in the PMU code, and finally some s/%p/%px/ in xmon.

Thanks to:
  David Gibson, Nicholas Piggin, Ravi Bangoria.
