[POWERPC] clean up pseries hcall interfaces

Our pseries hcall interfaces are out of control:

plpar_hcall_norets
plpar_hcall
plpar_hcall_8arg_2ret
plpar_hcall_4out
plpar_hcall_7arg_7ret
plpar_hcall_9arg_9ret

Create 3 interfaces to cover all cases:

plpar_hcall_norets: 7 arguments no returns
plpar_hcall: 6 arguments 4 returns
plpar_hcall9: 9 arguments 9 returns

There are only 2 cases in the kernel that need plpar_hcall9, hopefully
we can keep it that way.

Pass in a buffer to stash return parameters so we avoid the &dummy1,
&dummy2 madness.
