When stop state 5 is enabled, reading the core_fir during an HMI can
result in a xscom read error with xscom_read() returning the
OPAL_XSCOM_PARTIAL_GOOD error code and core_fir value of all FFs. At
present this return error code is not handled in decode_core_fir()
hence the invalid core_fir value is sent to the kernel where it
interprets it as a FATAL hmi causing a system check-stop.

This can be prevented by forcing the core to wake-up using before
reading the core_fir. Hence this patch wraps the call to
read_core_fir() within calls to dctl_set_special_wakeup() and
dctl_clear_special_wakeup().

Malfunction Alert is a broadcast HMI and all core should have been
already out of stop state. It is strange that with stop 5 the behaviour
changes. Not sure whether this is a hardware BUG OR stop 5 never wakeup
with HMI.

May be we should clear special wakeup here once we are done with
reading, instead of doing that in goto out label.

Thanks,
