Paul Mackerras c6d4267ece [POWERPC] Handle alignment faults on new FP load/store instructions
This adds code to handle alignment traps generated by the following
new floating-point load/store instructions, by emulating the
instruction in the kernel (as is done for other instructions that
generate alignment traps):

lfiwax	load floating-point as integer word algebraic indexed
stfiwx	store floating-point as integer word indexed
lfdp	load floating-point double pair
lfdpx	load floating-point double pair indexed
stfdp	store floating-point double pair
stfdpx	store floating-point double pair indexed

All these except stfiwx are new in POWER6.

lfdp/lfdpx/stfdp/stfdpx load and store 16 bytes of memory into an
even/odd FP register pair.  In little-endian mode each 8-byte value is
byte-reversed separately (i.e. not as a 16-byte unit).  lfiwax/stfiwx
load or store the lower 4 bytes of a floating-point register from/to
memory; lfiwax sets the upper 4 bytes of the FP register to the sign
extension of the value loaded.
