[PATCH] powerpc: fix inverted SET_FULL_REGS bitop

This bit operation was inverted and set the low bit rather than cleared
it, breaking the ability to ptrace non-volatile GPRs after exec. Fix.

Well this is embarrassing. Condition flags should be represented by the
bit set, rather than bit clear. That would have made the mistake obvious
even at a glance.

In this case, this stuff is going away soon so I won't bother to change
it around.

Thanks,
Nick
