[POWERPC] Fix register save area alignment for swapcontext syscall
For 32-bit processes, the getcontext side of the swapcontext system call (i.e. the saving of the context when the first argument is non-NULL) has to set the ctx->uc_mcontext.uc_regs pointer to the place where it saves the registers. Which it does, but it doesn't ensure that the pointer is 16-byte aligned. 16-byte alignment is needed because the Altivec/VMX registers are saved in there, and they need to be on a 16-byte boundary. This fixes it by ensuring the appropriate alignment of the pointer. This issue was pointed out by Jakub Jelinek. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
