[PATCH 8/9] powerpc: Add VSX context save/restore, ptrace and signal support

2008-06-24 Thread Michael Neuling
This patch extends the floating point save and restore code to use the VSX load/stores when VSX is available. This will make FP context save/restore marginally slower on FP only code, when VSX is available, as it has to load/store 128bits rather than just 64bits. Mixing FP, VMX and VSX code will
