Some thread flags can be set remotely, and so even when IRQs are disabled,
the flags can change under our feet. Generally this is unlikely to cause a
problem in practice, but it is somewhat unsound, and KCSAN will
legitimately warn that there is a data race.
To avoid such issues, a snapshot of the flags has to be taken prior to
using them. Some places already use READ_ONCE() for that, others do not.
Convert them all to the new flag accessor helpers.

Create an anonymous union for dar and dear regsiters, we can reference
dear to get the effective address when CONFIG_4xx=y or CONFIG_BOOKE=y.
Otherwise, reference dar. This makes code more clear.

Create an anonymous union for dsisr and esr regsiters, we can reference
esr to get the exception detail when CONFIG_4xx=y or CONFIG_BOOKE=y.
Otherwise, reference dsisr. This makes code more clear.

All subarchitectures always save all GPRs to pt_regs interrupt frames
now. Remove FULL_REGS and associated bits.

Add context tracking to the system call handler explicitly, and remove
_TIF_NOHZ.
This improves system call performance when nohz_full is enabled. On a
POWER9, gettid scv system call cost on a nohz_full CPU improves from
1129 cycles to 1004 cycles and on a housekeeping CPU from 550 cycles
to 430 cycles.

Today we have:
#ifdef CONFIG_PPC32
index = addr >> 2;
if ((addr & 3) || child->thread.regs == NULL)
#else
index = addr >> 3;
if ((addr & 7))
#endif
sizeof(long) has value 4 for PPC32 and value 8 for PPC64.
Dividing by 4 is equivalent to >> 2 and dividing by 8 is equivalent
to >> 3.
And 3 and 7 are respectively (sizeof(long) - 1).
Use sizeof(long) to get rid of the #ifdef CONFIG_PPC32 and consolidate
the calculation and checking.
thread.regs have to be not NULL on both PPC32 and PPC64 so adding
that test on PPC64 is harmless.
