Subject: [RFC PATCH v5 05/12] powerpc/book3s: Introduce a early machine check hook in cpu_spec.

This patch adds the early machine check function pointer in cputable for
CPU specific early machine check handling. The early machine handle routine
will be called in real mode to handle SLB and TLB errors. We can not reuse
the existing machine_check hook because it is always invoked in kernel
virtual mode and we would already be in trouble if we get SLB or TLB errors.
This patch just sets up a mechanism to invoke CPU specific handler. The
subsequent patches will populate the function pointer.
