powerpc: PTRACE_PEEKUSR always returns FPR0
There is a bug in using ptrace to access FPRs via PTRACE_PEEKUSR / PTRACE_POKEUSR. In effect, trying to access any of the FPRs always really accesses FPR0, which does seriously break debugging :-) The problem seems to have been introduced by commit 3ad26e5c (Merge branch 'for-kvm' into next).
