Blackfin: make EVT3->EVT5 lowering more robust wrt IPEND[4]



We handle many exceptions at EVT5 (hardware error level) so that we can
catch exceptions in our exception handling code.  Today - if the global
interrupt enable bit (IPEND[4]) is set (interrupts disabled) our trap
handling code goes into a infinite loop, since we need interrupts to be
on to defer things to EVT5.

Normal kernel code should not trigger this for any reason as IPEND[4] gets
cleared early (when doing an interrupt context save) and the kernel stack
there should be sane (or something much worse is happening in the system).
But there have been a few times where this has happened, so this change
makes sure we dump a proper crash message even when things have gone south.
