[PATCH 16/19] powerpc: create giveup_all()

Create a single function that gives everything up (FP, VMX, VSX, SPE).
Doing this all at once means we only do one MSR write.
A context switch microbenchmark using yield():
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/context_switch2.c
./context_switch2 --test=yield --fp --altivec --vector 0 0
shows an improvement of 3% on POWER8.
