powerpc: Fix bad stack check in exception entry

commit 90ff5d688e61f49f23545ffab6228bd7e87e6dc7 upstream.

In EXCEPTION_PROLOG_COMMON() we check to see if the stack pointer (r1)
is valid when coming from the kernel.  If it's not valid, we die but
with a nice oops message.

Currently we allocate a stack frame (subtract INT_FRAME_SIZE) before we
check to see if the stack pointer is negative.  Unfortunately, this
won't detect a bad stack where r1 is less than INT_FRAME_SIZE.

This patch fixes the check to compare the modified r1 with
-INT_FRAME_SIZE.  With this, bad kernel stack pointers (including NULL
pointers) are correctly detected again.

Kudos to Paulus for finding this.
