[PATCHv5 2/8] EDAC, altera: Add panic flag check to A10 IRQ

From: Thor Thayer <tthayer at opensource.altera.com>

In preparation for additional memory module ECCs, the
IRQ function will check a panic flag before doing a
kernel panic on double bit errors.

OCRAM uncorrectable errors cause a panic because sleep/resume
functions and FPGA contents during sleep are stored in OCRAM.

ECCs on peripheral FIFO buffers will not cause a kernel panic
on DBERRs because the packet can be retried and therefore
recovered.
