KVM: PPC: Use get/set for to_svcpu to help preemption
When running the 64-bit Book3s PR code without CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE, we were doing a few things wrong, most notably access to PACA fields without making sure that the pointers stay stable accross the access (preempt_disable()). This patch moves to_svcpu towards a get/put model which allows us to disable preemption while accessing the shadow vcpu fields in the PACA. That way we can run preemptible and everyone's happy!
