powerpc: Fix bad stack check in exception entry
In EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON() we check to see if the stack pointer (r1) is valid when coming from the kernel. If it's not valid, we die but with a nice oops message. Currently we allocate a stack frame (subtract INT_FRAME_SIZE) before we check to see if the stack pointer is negative. Unfortunately, this won't detect a bad stack where r1 is less than INT_FRAME_SIZE. This patch fixes the check to compare the modified r1 with -INT_FRAME_SIZE. With this, bad kernel stack pointers (including NULL pointers) are correctly detected again. Kudos to Paulus for finding this.
