[PATCH v2 3/9] powerpc/bpf/32: Only set a stack frame when necessary

Until now a stack frame was set at all time due to the need
to keep tail call counter in the stack.

But since commit fa025537f584 ("powerpc/bpf/32: Fix Oops on tail call
tests"), the tail call counter is passed via register r4. It is
therefore not necessary anymore to have a stack frame for that.

Just like PPC64, implement bpf_has_stack_frame() and only sets the frame
when needed.

The difference with PPC64 is that PPC32 doesn't have a redzone, so
the stack is required as soon as non volatile registers are used or
when tail call count is set up.
