powerpc/lib/sstep: Fix build errors with newer binutils

Building tinyconfig with gcc (Debian 11.2.0-16) and assembler (Debian
2.37.90.20220207) the following build error shows up:

  {standard input}: Assembler messages:
  {standard input}:10576: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stbcx.'
  {standard input}:10680: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lharx'
  {standard input}:10694: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lbarx'

Rework to add assembler directives [1] around the instruction.  The
problem with this might be that we can trick a power6 into
single-stepping through an stbcx. for instance, and it will execute that
in kernel mode.
