[PATCH v5 03/10] powerpc/signal64: Move non-inline functions out of setup_sigcontext()

There are non-inline functions which get called in setup_sigcontext() to
save register state to the thread struct. Move these functions into a
separate prepare_setup_sigcontext() function so that
setup_sigcontext() can be refactored later into an "unsafe" version
which assumes an open uaccess window. Non-inline functions should be
avoided when uaccess is open.

The majority of setup_sigcontext() can be refactored to execute in an
"unsafe" context (uaccess window is opened) except for some non-inline
functions. Move these out into a separate prepare_setup_sigcontext()
function which must be called first and before opening up a uaccess
window. A follow-up commit converts setup_sigcontext() to be "unsafe".
