Ganesh Goudar 3a1e92d089 powerpc/mce: Fix access error in mce handler 
We queue an irq work for deferred processing of mce event in realmode
mce handler, where translation is disabled. Queuing of the work may
result in accessing memory outside RMO region, such access needs the
translation to be enabled for an LPAR running with hash mmu else the
kernel crashes.

After enabling translation in mce_handle_error() we used to leave it
enabled to avoid crashing here, but now with the commit
74c3354bc1 ("powerpc/pseries/mce: restore msr before returning from
handler") we are restoring the MSR to disable translation.

Hence to fix this enable the translation before queuing the work.

Without this change following trace is seen on injecting SLB multihit in
an LPAR running with hash mmu.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
