[PATCH] [POWERPC] Fix incorrect enabling of VMX when building signal or user context

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

When building a signal or a ucontext, we can incorrectly set the MSR_VEC
bit of the kernel pt_regs->msr before returning to userspace if the task
-ever- used VMX.

This can lead to funny result if that stack used it in the past, then
"lost" it (ie. it wasn't enabled after a context switch for example) and
then called get_context. It can end up with VMX enabled and the registers
containing values from some other task.
