[PATCH v2 0/2] linux-user/ppc: Deliver SIGTRAP on tw[i]/td[i]

[matheus . ferst]

From: Matheus Ferst <matheus.ferst@eldorado.org.br>

In the review of 66c6b40aba1, Richard Henderson suggested[1] using
"trap" instead of ".long 0x0" to generate the signal to test XER
save/restore behavior. However, linux-user aborts when a trap
exception is raised, so we kept the patch with SIGILL.

This patch series is a follow-up to remove the cpu_abort call, deliver
SIGTRAP instead (using TRAP_BRKPT as si_code), and apply the suggestion
to the signal_save_restore_xer test.

This change removes the "qemu: fatal: Tried to call a TRAP" reported in
issue #588[2], but we still have the "Unknown privilege violation (03)"
error.

I had some problems building with
--static, so I couldn't test if it solves the problem.

v2:
 - Based-on rth's patch to use force_sig_fault and avoid merge conflicts
