[PATCH 3/3] powerpc/tm: P9 disable transactionally suspended sigcontexts

[Cyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com>]

From: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org>

Unfortunately userspace can construct a sigcontext which enables
suspend. Thus userspace can force Linux into a path where trechkpt is
executed.

This patch blocks this from happening on POWER9 but sanity checking
sigcontexts passed in.

ptrace doesn't have this problem as only MSR SE and BE can be changed
via ptrace.

This patch also adds a number of WARN_ON() in case we every enter
suspend when we shouldn't. This should catch systems that don't have
the firmware change and are running TM.

A future firmware change will allow suspend mode on POWER9 but that is
going to require additional Linux changes to support. In the interim,
this allows TM to continue to (partially) work while stopping
userspace from crashing Linux.
