H A Dhead_64.Sa792e75d Wed Nov 07 00:17:02 CST 2007 Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> [POWERPC] Fix si_addr value on low level hash failures

If the low level MMU hash table insertion returns an error (which
can happen in some rare circumstances when the hypervisor refuses
the insertion of a PTE, typically if you try to access junk via
/dev/mem), the generated signal had an incorrect si_addr value due
to a bug in the assembly, which was loading it as a 32 bits quantity
instead of a 64 bits quantity.
