powerpc: Fix unpaired __trace_hcall_entry and __trace_hcall_exit
Unpaired calling of __trace_hcall_entry and __trace_hcall_exit could
cause incorrect preempt count. And it might happen as the global
variable hcall_tracepoint_refcount is checked separately before calling
them.
Instead, store the value that was used on entry in the stack frame
and retreive it from there after the call
