Nicholas Piggin 7c1bd80cc2 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Send kvmppc_bad_interrupt NMIs to Linux handlers
It's possible to take a SRESET or MCE in these paths due to a bug
in the host code or a NMI IPI, etc. A recent bug attempting to load
a virtual address from real mode gave th complete but cryptic error,
abridged:

      Oops: Bad interrupt in KVM entry/exit code, sig: 6 [#1]

      LR [c0000000000c2430] do_tlbies+0x230/0x2f0

Sending the NMIs through the Linux handlers gives a nicer output:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
