sh: simplify kexec vbr code V2

Commit Message

From: Magnus Damm <[e-mail]>

Setup the vbr register in machine_kexec() V2. This
instead of passing values to the assembly snippet.

Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <[e-mail]>

 Changes since V1:
 - added a call to set_bl_bit() to block exceptions

Applied with a few fixups, including ftrace state save/restore.
