powerpc/tm: Fix context switching TAR, PPR and DSCR SPRs

commit 28e61cc466d8daace4b0f04ba2b83e0bd68f5832 upstream.

If a transaction is rolled back, the Target Address Register (TAR), Processor
Priority Register (PPR) and Data Stream Control Register (DSCR) should be
restored to the checkpointed values before the transaction began.  Any changes
to these SPRs inside the transaction should not be visible in the abort
handler.

Currently Linux doesn't save or restore the checkpointed TAR, PPR or DSCR.  If
we preempt a processes inside a transaction which has modified any of these, on
process restore, that same transaction may be aborted we but we won't see the
checkpointed versions of these SPRs.

This adds checkpointed versions of these SPRs to the thread_struct and adds the
save/restore of these three SPRs to the treclaim/trechkpt code.

Without this if any of these SPRs are modified during a transaction, users may
incorrectly see a speculated SPR value even if the transaction is aborted.
