[POWERPC] spufs: one more fix for 64k pages
The SPU context save/restore code is currently built for a 4k page size and we provide a _shipped version of it since most people don't have the spu toolchain that is needed to rebuild that code. This patch hardcodes the data structures to a 64k page alignment, which also guarantees 4k alignment but unfortunately wastes 60k of memory per SPU context that is created in the running system. We will follow up on this with another patch to reduce that overhead or maybe redo the context save/restore logic to do this part entirely different, but for now it should make experimental systems work with either page size.
