[IA64] Save I-resources to ia64_sal_os_state
This is a patch related to this discussion.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-ia64/msg07605.html
When INIT is sent, ip/psr/pfs register is stored to the I-resources
(iip/ipsr/ifs registers), and they are copied in the min-state save
area(pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}).
Therefore, in creating pt_regs at ia64_mca_modify_original_stack(),
cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs} should be derived from pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}. But
current code copies pmsa_{xip,xpsr,xfs} to cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs}
when PSR.ic is 0.
finish_pt_regs(struct pt_regs *regs, const pal_min_state_area_t *ms,
unsigned long *nat)
{
(snip)
if (ia64_psr(regs)->ic) {
regs->cr_iip = ms->pmsa_iip;
regs->cr_ipsr = ms->pmsa_ipsr;
regs->cr_ifs = ms->pmsa_ifs;
} else {
regs->cr_iip = ms->pmsa_xip;
regs->cr_ipsr = ms->pmsa_xpsr;
regs->cr_ifs = ms->pmsa_xfs;
}
It's ok when PSR.ic is not 0. But when PSR.ic is 0, this could be
a problem when we investigate kernel as the value of regs->cr_iip does
not point to where INIT really interrupted.
At first I tried to change finish_pt_regs() so that it uses always
pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs} for cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs}, but Keith Owens pointed out
it could cause another problem if I change it.

I confirmed he was right, so I decided to keep it as-is and to
save pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs} to ia64_sal_os_state for debugging.
An attached patch is just adding new members into ia64_sal_os_state to
save pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}.
