powerpc/kprobes: Do not disable External interrupts during single step

Browse Source 
External/Decrement exceptions have lower priority than the Debug Exception.
So, we don't have to disable the External interrupts before a single step.
However, on BookE, Critical Input Exception(CE) has higher priority than a
Debug Exception. Hence we mask them.
