Since last time:

- Commented machine check handler wakeup to describe why registers are
  not lost.
- Dropped patch to make PACA_THREAD_IDLE_STATE POWER8-only because
  Gautham will use it for POWER9 DD1.
- Removed some leftover debug cruft noticed by Gautham, and re-tested
  on POWER8. Added some extra comments to hopefully try to illustrate
  the idle state changes a bit better.
  
Needs:
- Ack from Gautham for patch 7
- Ack from Mahesh for patch 4

Thanks,
Nick
