To support addition of "bitmask" to MASKABLE_* macros,
factor out the EXCPETION_PROLOG_1 macro.

Currently soft_enabled is used as the flag to determine
the interrupt state. Patch extends the soft_enabled
to be used as a mask instead of a flag.

This is really the core part of the patch -- after reversing the
soft_enable logic to be a disable boolean, now it's being extended
to be a disable mask. The exception macro changes just allow an
interrupt type bit to be passed in later.

I should have picked it up earlier, but if you do end up submitting
another version, perhaps consider splitting the disable mask change
and putting it after patch 5.

Yes will do that. Make sense.
