[PATCH] selftests/powerpc: Fix matrix multiply assist test

The ISA states: "when ACC[i] contains defined data, the contents of VSRs
4×i to 4×i+3 are undefined until either a VSX Move From ACC instruction
is used to copy the contents of ACC[i] to VSRs 4×i to 4×i+3 or some other
instruction directly writes to one of these VSRs." We aren't doing this.
This test only works on Power10 because the hardware implementation
happens to map ACC0 to VSRs 0-3, but will fail on any other implementation
that doesn't do this. So add xxmfacc between writing to the accumulator
and accessing the VSRs.
Fixes commit 3527e1ab9a79 ("selftests/powerpc: Add matrix multiply assist
(MMA) test")
