H A Dvector.S18461960 Tue Sep 10 05:21:10 CDT 2013 Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> powerpc: Provide for giveup_fpu/altivec to save state in alternate location

This provides a facility which is intended for use by KVM, where the
contents of the FP/VSX and VMX (Altivec) registers can be saved away
to somewhere other than the thread_struct when kernel code wants to
use floating point or VMX instructions. This is done by providing a
pointer in the thread_struct to indicate where the state should be
saved to. The giveup_fpu() and giveup_altivec() functions test these
pointers and save state to the indicated location if they are non-NULL.
Note that the MSR_FP/VEC bits in task->thread.regs->msr are still used
to indicate whether the CPU register state is live, even when an
alternate save location is being used.

This also provides load_fp_state() and load_vr_state() functions, which
load up FP/VSX and VMX state from memory into the CPU registers, and
corresponding store_fp_state() and store_vr_state() functions, which
store FP/VSX and VMX state into memory from the CPU registers.
