Here's a few stragglers. The first patch was submitted already but had
some bugs with unrecoverable exceptions on HPT (current->blah being
accessed before MSR[RI] was enabled). Those should be fixed now.
The others are generally for helping asynch interrupts, which are a bit
harder to measure well but important for IO and IPIs.
After this series, the SPR accesses of the interrupt handlers for radix
are becoming pretty optimal except for PPR which we could improve on,
and virt CPU accounting which is very costly -- we might disable that
by default unless someone comes up with a good reason to keep it.
Since v1:
- Compile fixes for 64e.
- Fixed a SOFT_MASK_DEBUG false positive.
- Improve function name and comments explaining why patch 2 does not
need to hard enable when PMU is enabled via sysfs.
Since v2:
- Split first patch into patch 1 and 2, improve on the changelogs.
- More compile fixes.
- Fixed several review comments from Daniel.
- Added patch 5.
Thanks,
Nick

powerpc/64/interrupt: make normal synchronous interrupts enable
MSR[EE] if possible
powerpc/64s/interrupt: handle MSR EE and RI in interrupt entry wrapper
powerpc/64s/perf: add power_pmu_wants_prompt_pmi to say whether perf
wants PMIs to be soft-NMI
powerpc/64s/interrupt: Don't enable MSR[EE] in irq handlers unless
perf is in use
powerpc/64/interrupt: reduce expensive debug tests
powerpc/64s/interrupt: avoid saving CFAR in some asynchronous
interrupts
