powerpc: Streamline ret_from_except_lite for non-iSeries platforms
There is a small passage of code in ret_from_except_lite which is only required on iSeries. For a multi-platform kernel on non-iSeries machines this means we end up executing ~15 nops in ret_from_except_lite. It would be nicer if non-iSeries could skip the code entirely, and on iSeries we can jump out of line to execute the code. I have no performance numbers to justify this, other than the assertion that executing 15 nops takes longer than executing 0.
