powerpc/xmon: Wait for secondaries before IPI'ing on system reset
An externally triggered system reset (e.g., via QEMU nmi command, or pseries reset button) can cause system reset interrupts on all CPUs. In case this causes xmon to be entered, it is undesirable for the primary (first) CPU into xmon to trigger an NMI IPI to others, because this may cause a nested system reset interrupt. So spin for a time waiting for secondaries to join xmon before performing the NMI IPI, similarly to what the crash dump code does.
