powerpc: Prepare for IRQ entry exit

Browse source

Move interrupt entry and exit helper routines from interrupt.h into the
PowerPC-specific entry-common.h header as a preparatory step for enabling
the generic entry/exit framework.

This consolidation places all PowerPC interrupt entry/exit handling in a
single common header, aligning with the generic entry infrastructure.
The helpers provide architecture-specific handling for interrupt and NMI
entry/exit sequences, including:

 - arch_interrupt_enter/exit_prepare()
 - arch_interrupt_async_enter/exit_prepare()
 - arch_interrupt_nmi_enter/exit_prepare()
 - Supporting helpers such as nap_adjust_return(), check_return_regs_valid(),
   debug register maintenance, and soft mask handling.

The functions are copied verbatim from interrupt.h.Subsequent patches will
integrate these routines into the generic entry/exit flow.

No functional change intended.
