3.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michael Neuling <mi...@neuling.org>

commit 35f7097fcedec63fcba1852dbee96f74a2d90878 upstream.

PAPR carves out 0xff-0xe0 for hypervisor use of transactional memory software
abort cause codes.  Unfortunately we don't respect this currently.

Below fixes this to move our cause codes to below this region.
