powerpc/booke: Add Stack Marking support to Booke Exception Prolog

From: Torez Smith <lnxto...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch adds a marker to the exception stack frame to aid in debugging.
It's already inserted on other platforms and xmon recognizes it and
identifies exception frames when showing stack traces.
