powerpc: Fix machine check problem on 32-bit kernels
This fixes a bug found by Dave Jones that means that it is possible for userspace to provoke a machine check on 32-bit kernels. This also fixes a couple of other places where I found similar problems by inspection. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
