and export them to userland.
- Define __HAVE_REG32 on platforms that define a reg32 structure and check
for this in <sys/procfs.h> to control when to export prstatus32, etc.
- Add prstatus32_t and prpsinfo32_t typedefs for the 32-bit structures.
libbfd looks for these types, and having them fixes 'gcore' in gdb of a
32-bit process on a 64-bit platform.
- Use the structure definitions from <sys/procfs.h> in gcore's elf32 core
dump code instead of duplicating the definitions.

and POWER8. This instruction set unifies the 32 64-bit scalar floating
point registers with the 32 128-bit vector registers into a single bank
of 64 128-bit registers. Kernel support mostly amounts to saving and
restoring the wider version of the floating point registers and making
sure that both scalar FP and vector registers are enabled once a VSX
instruction is executed. get_mcontext() and friends currently cannot
see the high bits, which will require a little more work.
As the system compiler (GCC 4.2) does not support VSX, making use of this
from userland requires either newer GCC or clang.

Kernel sources for 64-bit PowerPC, along with build-system changes to keep
32-bit kernels compiling (build system changes for 64-bit kernels are
coming later). Existing 32-bit PowerPC kernel configurations must be
updated after this change to specify their architecture.
{set,fill}_{,fp,db}regs() fixup:
- Add dummy {set,fill}_dbregs() on architectures that don't have them.
- KSEfy the powerpc versions (struct proc -> struct thread).
- Some architectures had the prototypes in md_var.h, some in reg.h, and
some in both; for consistency, move them to reg.h on all platforms.
These functions aren't really MD (the implementation is MD, but the interface
is MI), so they should move to an MI header, but I haven't figured out which
one yet.
Run-tested on i386, build-tested on Alpha, untested on other platforms.
