Based on original patches from
 Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergman@de.ibm.com>; and
 Luke Browning <lukebr@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, spu contexts need to be loaded to the SPU in order to take
class 0 and class 1 exceptions.

This change makes the actual interrupt-handlers much simpler (ie,
set the exception information in the context save area), and defers the
handling code to the spufs_handle_class[01] functions, called from
spufs_run_spu.

This should improve the concurrency of the spu scheduling leading to
greater SPU utilization when SPUs are overcommited.
