powerpc/livepatch: Fix livepatch stack access 

While running stress test with livepatch module loaded, kernel bug was
triggered.

When an interrupt occurs during the livepatch_handler execution, it's
possible for the livepatch_stack and/or thread_info to be corrupted.
eg:

  Task A                        Interrupt Handler
  =========                     =================
  livepatch_handler:
  mr r0, r1
  ld r1, TI_livepatch_sp(r12)
                                hardware_interrupt_common:
                                  do_IRQ+0x8:
                                    mflr    r0          <- saved stack pointer is overwritten
                                    bl      _mcount
                                    ...
                                    std     r27,-40(r1) <- overwrite of thread_info()

  lis r2, STACK_END_MAGIC@h
  ori r2, r2, STACK_END_MAGIC@l
  ld  r12, -8(r1)

Fix the corruption by using r11 register for livepatch stack
manipulation, instead of shuffling task stack and livepatch stack into
r1 register. Using r11 register also avoids disabling/enabling irq's
while setting up the livepatch stack.
