powerpc/64: Disable irq restore warning for now
We recently added a warning in arch_local_irq_restore() to check that
the soft masking state matches reality.
Unfortunately it trips in a few places, which are not entirely trivial
to fix. The key problem is if we're doing function_graph tracing of
restore_math(), the warning pops and then seems to recurse. It's not
entirely clear because the system continuously oopses on all CPUs,
with the output interleaved and unreadable.
It's also been observed on a G5 coming out of idle.
Until we can fix those cases disable the warning for now.
