9cb82f2f4692293a27c578c3038518ce4477de72 (Make iSeries spin on
__secondary_hold_spinloop, like pSeries) added a load of current_set
but this load was repeated later and we don't even have the paca yet.
It also checked __secondary_hold_spinloop with a 32 bit compare instead
of a 64 bit compare.

b6f6b98a4e91fcf31db7de54c3aa86252fc6fb5f (Don't spin on sync instruction
at boot time) missed the copy of the startup code in iseries.

1426d5a3bd07589534286375998c0c8c6fdc5260 (Dynamically allocate pacas)
doesn't allow for pacas to be less than lppacas and recalculated the paca
location from the cpu id in r0 every time through the secondary loop.

Various revisions over time made the comments on conditional branches
confusing with respect to being a hold loop or forward progress

Mostly in-order description of the changes:

Replicate the few lines of code saved by the ugly scoped ifdef CONFIG_SMP
in the secondary loop between yielding on UP and marking time with the
hypervisor on SMP.  Always compile the iseries_secondary_yield loop and
use it if the cpu id is above nr_cpu_ids.  Change all forward progress
paths to be forward branches to the next numerical label.  Assign a
label to all loops.  Move all sync instructions from the loops to the
forward progress path.  Wait to load current_set until paca is set to go.
Move the iseries_secondary_smp_loop label to cover the whole spin loop.
Add HMT_MEDIUM when we make forward progress.
