The FPU regs are placed at the top of the stack frame. Currently the
position expected to be passed to the macro. The macros now should be
passed the stack frame size and from there they can calculate where to
put the regs, this makes the use simpler.
Also move them to a header file to be used in an different area of the
powerpc selftests

Ensure the kernel correctly switches VSX registers correctly. VSX
registers are all volatile, and despite the kernel preserving VSX
across syscalls, it doesn't have to. Test that during interrupts and
timeslices ending the VSX regs remain the same.

Load up the non volatile FPU and VMX regs and ensure that they are the
expected value in a signal handler

Test that the non volatile floating point and Altivec registers get
correctly preserved across the fork() syscall.
fork() works nicely for this purpose, the registers should be the same for
both parent and child
