This a set of misc ppc arch specific code improvements/optimizations.
Most of the improvements are done in Power9/8/7 exception handling code
alongwith some code cleanups.

Since patch 7/7 of v2 series have been picked by Aditya in his patchset
for P11 support, I have excluded that patch in this series and based on
top of his v6 series which contains the required patch as 1/5.

Based on: <20240731055022.696051-1-adityag@linux.ibm.com>
