powerpc: Disable interrupts in 64-bit kernel FP and vector faults
If we get a floating point, altivec or vsx unavaible interrupt in
kernel, we trigger a kernel error. There is no point preserving
the interrupt state, in fact, that can even make debugging harder
as the processor state might change (we may even preempt) between
taking the exception and landing in a debugger.
So just make those 3 disable interrupts unconditionally.

v2: On BookE only disable when hitting the kernel unavailable
path, otherwise it will fail to restore softe as
fast_exception_return doesn't do it.
