There is no need for this to be in asm, use the new intrrupt entry wrapper.

Hopefully this works on a real G5 now, but I couldn't reproduce the
problem with QEMU.

It still prevents my G5 from booting.

I see differing failures.  What's common is that there is a pause of
about 60 seconds before the crash occurs.  It looks like the crash
occurs in power4_idle_nap+0x30/0x34.  Unfortuately, the BootX console is
too small to see enough.

I was now able to see the messages on the VGA console, and the problem
is actually that the cpus are starting to stall.

Andreas.
