Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/8] powerpc/irq: inline call_do_irq() and
 call_do_softirq() on PPC32

call_do_irq() and call_do_softirq() are simple enough to be
worth inlining.

Inlining them avoids an mflr/mtlr pair plus a save/reload on stack.
It also allows GCC to keep the saved ksp_limit in an nonvolatile reg.

This is inspired from S390 arch. Several other arches do more or
less the same. The way sparc arch does seems odd thought.

v2: no change.
v3: no change.
v4:
- comment reminding the purpose of the inline asm block.
- added r2 as clobbered reg
v5:
- Limiting the change to PPC32 for now.
- removed r2 from the clobbered regs list (on PPC32 r2 points to current all the time)
- Removed patch 1 and merged ksp_limit handling in here.
v6:
- rebased after removal of ksp_limit
