Breno Leitao 1ebadf5ef7 selftests/powerpc: Fix ptrace tm failure 
commit 48dc0ef190 upstream.

Test ptrace-tm-spd-gpr fails on current kernel (4.19) due to a segmentation
fault that happens on the child process prior to setting cptr[2] = 1. This
causes the parent process to wait forever at 'while (!pptr[2])' and the test to
be killed by the test harness framework by timeout, thus, failing.

The segmentation fault happens because of a inline assembly being
generated as:

	0x10000355c <tm_spd_gpr+492>    lfs    f0, 0(0)

This is reading memory position 0x0 and causing the segmentation fault.

This code is being generated by ASM_LOAD_FPR_SINGLE_PRECISION(flt_4), where
flt_4 is passed to the inline assembly block as:

	[flt_4] "r" (&d)

Since the inline assembly 'r' constraint means any GPR, gpr0 is being
chosen, thus causing this issue when issuing a Load Floating-Point Single
instruction.

This patch simply changes the constraint to 'b', which specify that this
register will be used as base, and r0 is not allowed to be used, avoiding
this issue.

Other than that, removing flt_2 register from the input operands, since it
is not used by the inline assembly code at all.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
