selftests/powerpc: Test the preservation of FPU and VMX regs across syscall
Test that the non volatile floating point and Altivec registers get correctly preserved across the fork() syscall. fork() works nicely for this purpose, the registers should be the same for both parent and child Signed-off-by: Cyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> [mpe: Add include guards to basic_asm.h, minor formatting] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
