powerpc: Fix DSCR inheritance over fork()
Two DSCR tests have a hack in them:
/*
* XXX: Force a context switch out so that DSCR
* current value is copied into the thread struct
* which is required for the child to inherit the
* changed value.
*/
sleep(1);
We should not be working around this in the testcase, it is a kernel bug.
Fix it by copying the current DSCR to the child, instead of what we
had in the thread struct at last context switch.
