powerpc/book3e: Add generic 64-bit idle powersave support
We use a similar technique to ppc32: We set a thread local flag
to indicate that we are about to enter or have entered the stop
state, and have fixup code in the async interrupt entry code that
reacts to this flag to make us return to a different location
(sets NIP to LINK in our case).
