powerpc/powernv/mce: Don't silently restart the machine On MCE the current code will restart the machine with ppc_md.restart(). This case was extremely unlikely since prior to that a skiboot call is made and that resulted in a checkstop for analysis. With newer skiboots, on P9 we don't checkstop the box by default, instead we return back to the kernel to extract useful information at the time of the MCE. While we still get this information, this patch converts the restart to a panic(), so that if configured a dump can be taken and we can track and probably debug the potential issue causing the MCE.
