KVM: PPC: Move prepare_to_enter call site into subarch code

This function should be called with interrupts disabled, to avoid
a race where an exception is delivered after we check, but the
resched kick is received before we disable interrupts (and thus doesn't
actually trigger the exit code that would recheck exceptions).

booke already does this properly in the lightweight exit case, but
not on initial entry.

For now, move the call of prepare_to_enter into subarch-specific code so
that booke can do the right thing here.  Ideally book3s would do the same
thing, but I'm having a hard time seeing where it does any interrupt
disabling of this sort (plus it has several additional call sites), so
I'm deferring the book3s fix to someone more familiar with that code.
book3s behavior should be unchanged by this patch.
