[PATCH] ppc32: handle misaligned string/multiple insns
This patch adds code to the ppc32 alignment exception handler to make it handle the load/store string and load/store multiple word instructions. This is an issue for older CPUs such as the PPC601, which traps on load/store string instructions which cross a page boundary (newer CPUs handle this in hardware). I have a little test program which exercises this code, so I am reasonably confident it's correct.
