PPC64: Switch to 32-bit mode in interrupts

All the code in OpenBIOS runs in 32 bits, which is fine. Now, when
an interrupt arrives, the 970 CPU automatically sets the MSR_SF bit,
making us run in 64 bit mode.

That breaks address calculation, because 'lis' and 'ba' get sign
extended.

In order to circumvent that mess, let's just go back to 32 bit mode
whenever we get an interrupt.
