powerpc: Better scheduling of CR save code in system call path
At the moment system call entry looks like: crclr so ... mfcr r9 ... std r9,_CCR(r1) commit bd19c8994a82 ([POWERPC] system call micro optimisation) put some space between the crclr and mfcr in order to avoid a stall. There is still a stall seen between the mfcr and std. We can avoid the crclr by doing it in a GPR with rlwinm which gives us more room to better schedule the sequence.
