[PATCH 4/6] powerpc: Define ppr in thread_struct

[Haren Myneni]

[PATCH 4/6] powerpc: Define ppr in thread_struct

ppr in thread_struct is used to save PPR and restore it before process exits
from kernel.

This patch sets the default priority to 3 when tasks are created such
that users can use 4 for higher priority tasks.
