Log:
  [PPC64] Fix mismatch between thread flags and MSR

  When sigreturn() restored a thread's context, SRR1 was being restored
  to its previous value, but pcb_flags was not being touched.

  This could cause a mismatch between the thread's MSR and its pcb_flags.
  For instance, when the thread used the FPU for the first time inside
  the signal handler, sigreturn() would clear SRR1, but not pcb_flags.
  Then, the thread would return with the FPU bit cleared in MSR and,
  the next time it tried to use the FPU, it would fail on a KASSERT
  that checked if the FPU was disabled.

  This change clears the FPU bit in both pcb_flags and frame->srr1,
  as the code that restores the context expects to use the FPU trap
  to re-enable it.
