powerpc/pseries: Fix kexec regression caused by CPPR tracking

Browse Source 
The code to track the CPPR values added by commit
49bd364713 ("powerpc/pseries: Track previous
CPPR values to correctly EOI interrupts") broke kexec on pseries because
the kexec code in xics.c calls xics_set_cpu_priority() before the IPI has
been EOI'ed. This wasn't a problem previously but it now triggers a BUG_ON
in xics_set_cpu_priority() because os_cppr->index isn't 0.

Fix this problem by setting the index on the CPPR stack to 0 before calling
xics_set_cpu_priority() in xics_teardown_cpu().

Also make it clear that we only want to set the priority when there's just
one CPPR value in the stack, and enforce it by updating the value of
os_cppr->stack[0] rather than os_cppr->stack[os_cppr->index].

While we're at it change the BUG_ON to a WARN_ON.
