powerpc/64s: Disallow system reset vs system reset reentrancy
In preparation for using a dedicated stack for system reset interrupts, prevent a nested system reset from recovering, in order to simplify code that is called in crash/debug path. This allows a system reset interrupt to just use the base stack pointer. Keep an in_nmi nesting counter similarly to the in_mce counter. Consider the interrrupt non-recoverable if it is taken inside another system reset. Interrupt nesting could be allowed similarly to MCE, but system reset is a special case that's not for normal operation, so simplicity wins until there is requirement for nested system reset interrupts.
