>From coverity defect 173758:
CID 173758 (#1 of 1): Unused value (UNUSED_VALUE)
assigned_value: Assigning value from (uint8_t)i_Rs << 21 to
mtsprInstOpcode here, but that stored value is overwritten before it can
be used.
This causes the generated mtspr to always move from register r0 as
opposed to the function parameter i_Rs.
Luckily the only call to getMtsprInstruction is:
getMtsprInstruction( 0, (uint16_t)i_regId );
the first parameter is the register so in an incredible stroke of luck,
the requirement is to generate a mtspr from r0.
Therefore no bug exists today, this is still a fairly important fix
because if anyone uses getMtsprInstruction() with a non zero first
parameter, it will cause them endless headache.
Fixes: CID 173758
