powerpc/rtas: Validate rtas.entry before calling enter_rtas()
Currently we do not validate rtas.entry before calling enter_rtas(). This
leads to a kernel oops when user space calls rtas system call on a powernv
platform (see below). This patch adds code to validate rtas.entry before
making enter_rtas() call.
Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 4 [#1]
