powerpc: Change PACA from SPRG3 to SPRG1
This change the SPRG used to store the PACA on ppc64 from SPRG3 to SPRG1. SPRG3 is user readable on most processors and we want to use it for other things. We change the scratch SPRG used by exception vectors from SRPG1 to SPRG2. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
